I was born and brought up quite sharply in the sub-tropical swamplands of Liverpool. After a stint as the Fifth Beatle, The Third Man and The Fifth Horseman Of The Apocalypse (I was Gangrene), I struck out on my own and waded into the murky waters labelled ‘Alternative Comedy’.

I studied the Comedic Arts under the stern but staring eyes of Alexie Sayle, Keith Allen and Orville. Then I studied the Musical Arts under the puntatsic tutelage of none other than Professor Declan Patrick Aloysius McManus. Thus armed, I was ready to take my show based on the timetables of Wolverhampton buses all across the UK and The Isle Of Man.

Several court cases and restraining orders later, I began to write the scathing scatological songs for which I have been rightly hounded. Full of guile, bile and stupendous globules of sweat, these songs have been like a family to me, albeit The Manson Family.

My hobbies include: reading the endings of novels first, taking and giving offence easily, jumping to the wrong conclusions, swearing at the radio, performing karaoke to the recorded speeches of Winston Churchill, operating heavy machinery after taking painkillers, talking to the driver of the bus, wheel-clamping traffic wardens, ducking but not diving, an avid devotion to Pentel Ultrafine S570 pens and a weird fascination with the back of my barber’s head.

So that’s me, and this is my website. I hope you enjoy it.

ecstatic applause...a very funny man” - COMEDY MAGAZINE

“This is how comedy should be all of the time, clever, witty, thought-provoking and as sharp as
a surgeon’s knife” - THE LIVERPOOL DAILY POST

“Like a harder, more political, less troll-like Bill Bailey, the fantastic Steve Gribbin had the place in stitches
as he regaled us with his biting satire..he gleefully reacts to gasps from the audience by saying this
isn’t the telly and he can say what he wants!” - THE INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY
