LLOYD GRIFFITH PRE-TOUR WARM UP

The former host of cult Sky football show Soccer AM, Lloyd Griffith is one of the UK's fastest rising comedians. He co-hosts Flinch on Netflix, and has appeared on 8 Out of 10 Cats, Drunk History, Roast Battle CelebAbility and Comedy Central's Live at The Comedy Store

And it's not just comedy that he can turn his hand to - his operatic voice and former life as a choirboy have seen him appear on Songs of Praise, and he can often be heard performing with the choirs of Westminster Abbey, St George’s Chapel – Windsor Castle and various other London groups.

He was also an aspiring goalkeeper for Grimsby Town, which has seen him land the Soccer AM presenting job, as well as being a correspondent for BBC's The Premier League show and a contributor to Football's Funniest Moments

Lloyd is coming to The Half Moon to preview his new show Not Just a Pretty Face, before it goes on a nationwide tour, which is already close to selling out.

"Supersub Lloyd Griffith delivered some punchy gags about growing up in Grimsby. He also revealed a jaw-dropping singing voice. Expect to hear more from Griffith" BRUCE DESSAU, EVENING STANDARD

"Disarmingly good" DOMINIC MAXWELL, THE TIMES

"Inherently funny...very neat lines in his comic repertoire" STEVE BENNETT, CHORTLE

"Lloyd bounces off the audience and has everyone laughing along with him. This is an hour of uplifting stand-up that’ll have you smiling for days. A warm, relatable and hilarious show" ★★★★ GILLIAN FURMAGE, THE SUNDAY POST
