ANDREA KIRWIN
Andrea Kirwin is better known for her songs, but after 20 years of performing her original songs around Australia and New Zealand she's decided to put the guitar down and just do the banter, thus launching her comedy career this year supporting her very talented friend, Jenny Wynter!
Starting at the beginning of her love of folk music and coming out as a lesbian, Andrea's comedy set travels through her life experiences growing up as the daughter of a Fijian Church minister between Australia and Fiji and ends up at Woodford Folk Festival, but not for the reasons you might expect.
