Ashley Frieze, (full time comedian) has been performing on the UK stand-up comedy circuit since the beginning of 2003. In that time he has performed across much of the UK, as far north as the Highlands of Scotland and as far south as Penzance. Ashley has appeared extensively at clubs in the North and Scotland. Now based in the South East, he is bringing his comedy to a new audience.While many guitar-based acts use their musical skills to show off to an audience, Ashley has a unique angle. He cannot play the guitar that well. To distract from his mediocre musicianship, his songs are full of jokes and wordplay. With an infectiously joyous style of delivery and a collection of ludicrous tips and observations, Ashley's self-effacing manner on stage quickly brings an audience to a state of merriment and then keeps them there.
Ashley has recently been developing the non-musical side of his act and has acted as resident MC for a couple of clubs.
Edinburgh Fringe appearances 2003-2007 include various stand-up sets, The Great Big Comedy Picnic comedy showcase (Laughing Horse @ Canons' Gait, 2005 & 2006, and Counting House 2007) and co-starring in the highly successful comedy play The Musical! (Underbelly, 2004), which he also co-wrote.
