2013 Edinburgh Fringe
Shirley Gnome
Singing her special brand of crass and absurd c*untry music, Shirley Gnome belts out original tunes about the embarrassing, hilarious, and titillating adventures of bodies colliding. Her songs are smothered in explicit language and racy humour, but sung with the voice of an angel dry-humping a cloud. Sometimes tongue-in-cheek, other times insightful and honest, Shirley weaves a live show that has people in hysterics - often in spite of themselves. Winner of The People's Champ of Comedy 2012, Canada's largest cash prize ($20,000) comedy competition.

Caught Shirley Gnome at the Free Samples show at Whistlebinkies. Shirley is deliciously dirty-minded, armed with a guitar and a clutch of filthy songs ('Masturbation or Breakfast?' should give you some idea... ). Possible potential for audience embarrassment but with her charming manner and undeniable music talent I think she went down well (I'll give you that one for free, Shirley). Her full show is on at Underbelly (Belly Laugh) and would be the perfect later night entertainment after downing a few shandies with friends.
