'Is He Joking?’ is the first live album and DVD by satirical singer-songwriter Chris Tavener, and it is out today!

Please see below for the DVD trailer and two previous single releases from the album.

Join the “comedy genius” (Pop Culture Pipebomb) with “an elastic turn of phrase” (BBC 6 Music) as he takes you through a night of emotive, thought-provoking and humorous songs in this intimate theatre setting. Previously endorsed by ‘Funny Or Die’, ‘Songwriting Magazine’, Steve Lamacq and Paddy McGuinness.

Of his debut, Chris explains...

"Is He Joking (Live)’ is the culmination of my many years writing satirical songs. I have always wanted to experiment with the presentation of a one man show, exploring the psychology of a performer; especially a comedy performer. I feel like I nailed it!...Not that I’m biased or anything.
It feels very appropriate that this album should be both my debut album and my first live DVD. I can’t wait to hear what my audience think."

Alongside this, after so much hard work and dedication Chris has just completed his crowdfunding campaign for the project.

He will be on tour around Europe later this year, and also around the UK with a singer/songwriter Gavin Osborn (championed by BBC Radio 4).
