The Britpop Hour with Marc Burrows

About

A stand up celebration of 90s Britpop

Join award-winning comedian for a celebration of music’s most iconic and enduring moments. The Britpop Hour with Marc Burrows is at Norden Farm Centre for the Arts on Saturday 19 July at 8pm. Tickets are £15.50.

The Britpop Hour is a stand-up, musical and multimedia celebration. It marks the 30th anniversary of the genre’s pinnacle: The Blur vs Oasis chart battle. It also coincides with the reformed Oasis’ record-busting reunion tour. The show delves into the ridiculous stories, the OTT personalities and the enduring rivalries, all while celebrating some of the best music Britain has ever produced.

The evening is part warm, trivia-packed tribute, part send-up and part one man rock n’ roll party. It is written and performed by award winning music journalist, author, comedian and 90s refugee Marc Burrows.

Marc is based in London> He mostly writes about music and film for The Guardian, The Observer, The Quietus, The Independent, Big Issue and others. He has a background in stand-up comedy and has performed several runs of his one-man shows at the Edinburgh Festival fringe as well as around the country. He also plays bass in the cult Victoriana punk band The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing.

Join Marc in our studio where tonight we’re gonna party like it’s 1995.

Mad fer’it, do ya know what I mean?
