Boothby Graffoe, is a place in Lincolnshire I believe, but for me there is only one Boothby Graffoe and he is a tall comic singer who has been gracing the Fringe for years.

Initially I wasn’t aware that he was such a great guitarist, having only seen him as a stand-up, but he can play a mean axe with the best.

The show is now his tried and trusted formula, several of his self penned comedy songs, interspersed with his unique style of comic genius, and for the second half of his show he is joined by Nick Pynn playing violin and bouzouki on a few of his numbers.

Mr Graffoe has a strong following in Edinburgh and I can’t imagine the Fringe without him performing. The gig I saw was packed out so if like me you are a fan, you’d better hurry to get your ticket while there are still some available.
