Blindboy Boatclub
Musician, actor, podcaster, comedian, and bestselling author
Blindboy Boatclub is an award-winning, best-selling multi-disciplinary Irish artist, writer and podcaster known for his unique brand of absurdist and satirical humour.
Having risen to prominence as a part of Irish comedy hiphop duo, The Rubberbandits, Blindboy’s solo work has allowed him to explore wider avenues. Started in 2017, Blindboy’s eponymous podcast invites listeners and participants to speak openly, without judgement, about any subject. The podcast which has achieved a global listenership and tours in the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and Canada tackles topics including mental health and the deafening stigma surrounding it, social injustices, politics, music, and cultural criticism. Blindboy has also turned his razor sharp satirical wit to three critically acclaimed, best-selling short story collections and BBC television show Blindboy Undestroys the World, in which he explored contemporary issues impacting the UK today.
