"...as daft and charming as they are funny" - The Stage

"Brian Damage is a legend on the London Comedy Circuit a cracking deadpan act."
Chris Wilson - StandUpCom Magazine

"Intelligent comedy, downright dirty stuff and silly songs" (SXNews, Sydney)

"Legendary Brian Damage and top strangely straight-woman Krysstal are a one-off cross-genre act but they have echoes of The Bonzos, the heyday of music hall and some rather seedy country and western club - four stars - I laughed like a drain" Chortle.co.uk

" Always enjoyable incredibly funny. His 'Buddy Holly plays Oasis' is a gem"
Chortle

"If you like daft stuff you'll love this new album by Brian Damage and Krysstal"
TIME OUT
