"In fact, he's the 'go to' act for some of the best names in comedy having supported the likes of Jack Dee, Lee Evans, Steve Coogan, Johnny Vegas, Patrick Kielty and Jasper Carrott on tour.
"Support comes from tiny scouse funnyman Adam Staunton who has developed at a rate of knots since starting out a few years ago. A confident and commanding stage presence matched with excellent material has seen him perform alongside the likes of John Bishop, Phil Nichol, Rob Rouse, Jack Whitehall and Sarah Millican."
But wait, there's more: with Sam Avery as the up and coming third act, it looks set to be a great start to the new season of laughs with the Red Herring Comedy Club.

Then, just around the corner... he's recently been seen winning on Celebrity Mastermind and as a guest on Sarah Millican's Television Show, but it was BBC1's The Magicians that first brought Pete Firman to prominence with his mix of jokes and tricks.
His latest tour Hoodwinker arrives at the Lincoln Performing Arts Centre on Saturday, February 23 (8pm).
His skill for fusing magic and comedy has made him a household name on British television, writing and performing in magic shows such as Derren Brown's 3D Magic Spectacular.
(Showtime: 8pm. Tickets: £15 (£13 students/concs). Box office: 0844 888 4414, www.lpac.co.uk)
