He tries to give up the internet and navigate life without asking his phone what to eat, where to go or how to get home.

He longs for a simpler time of playing ‘Snake’ and constructing emojis himself.

Now that he has hit 40 years of age, he wonders if he can ever go back to thinking for himself.

Hailing from Cork, Chris gave up the day job as an electrician to pursue his calling in comedy.

He emerged onto the Irish comedy scene in 2009 after winning the Bulmers Nuttin’ But Funny competition.

In 2010 Chris made his debut at one of Ireland’s biggest comedy festivals in Dublin’s Iveagh Gardens.

His compelling storytelling then went on to win him the Comedy Smack Down Award at the Galway Comedy Festival later that year.

He quickly established himself on the Irish circuit and became sought out to open for some of his favourite acts, including Dylan Moran, David O’ Doherty, PJ Gallagher, and Neil Delamare to name but a few.

His career went from strength to strength and now he is headlining his own show and selling out most venues.
