Niall was born and brought up in Northern
Ireland. He eventually became tired of the chilly
climate and the undercurrent of sectarianism and
decided to move to Scotland for a complete
change.
He has been making people laugh for ages but
finally got up on a stage in November 2004.
After his first faltering steps at The Stand's Red
Raw nights he started performing around
Scotland.
He has entertained bewildered crowds from
Inverness to Dumfries; though he freely admits
that he gets a bit homesick when he strays too
far from the urban familiarity of the central belt.
He finds farm animals and agricultural machinery
particularly intimidating.
In 2007 he will be
performing with Sian
Bevan in the Free Festival
in Bevan and Browne are Terrified.
