George Rigden

Edinburgh Fringe Review: George Rigden, Pleasance Courtyard

The Edinburgh Fringe can throw up some unexpected incidents. Particularly late night gigs when alcohol may have been consumed by the audience. Earlier this week I witnessed a very tense moment at Richard Todd's gig when a muscular punter who was bigger than some venues seemed reluctant to leave a show when he was ejected for using his phone. For a moment he stood at the door eyeballing the act. It could've gone either way. Luckily he then left.

Interview: Rarely Asked Questions – George Rigden

He can be a little bit oversharing on social media, he can sound a bit like David Brent onstage, but George Rigden has something. I'm not sure exactly what it is but I like it. He combines stories with music, but when he sings songs they aren't sweet and funny. He sings at the audience, not to them. Don't be fooled by the flowers he is holding in the picture here (unless there are thorns in them), there is something a little bit disturbing about him. But in a Good Way.
