Graeme Rayner is a stand up comedian based in West Yorkshire. He talks a lot about his poor mental health and his mediocre sex life in a way he hopes you will find amusing enough to distract you from your own poor mental health and mediocre sex lives.
Graeme started performing live comedy in November 2018. He sent a video of his first performance to David Baddiel, who said "If that's your first ever gig, you've got a future Graeme. I was going to say great future, but let's not be premature. Made me laugh out loud."
Since then Graeme has been performing at various venues around the country, and is steadily building a reputation, his progress slowed down only by a global pandemic.
He has shared a stage with well known comedians like Jon Richardson, Tez Ilyas, Alun Cochrane, Archie Kelly, Meryl O'Rourke, Scott Bennett and more.
