Hello World! Welcome to TheAlanHurley.com
Story!
Never sure how to punctuate that idiomatic greeting. Question or exclamation mark: feel free to argue in the comments.
This is my first blogpost for my new website www.TheAlanHurley.com. I had to choose that URL as www.alanhurley.com was already taken. Still, it's an accurate description as it is the website of an Alan Hurley; no chance of complaints to advertising standards there.
Below is some of the content that my site comprises, which acts as a portfolio for my stand up comedy, short films, music and writing. There will be more added as time goes on, including regular blog updates, so do subscribe with the blog RSS feed. Also, the blog will update the latest news on upcoming projects, such as the release of the debut EP from Alan McElroy and my musical comedy double act "Triple A!", so be sure to subscribe.
The following is a summary of some of the content available on the website; click the images to visit the relevant pages:
Stand Up
I'm an award winning stand up comedian and headline various comedy clubs all over Ireland. Additionally I've performed my stand up on national TV in two hemispheres! Take a gander at some of my favourite routines.
Filmmaker
I write, edit, direct and perform in a variety of short film pieces, from comedy sketches to music videos. Take a look at my films.
Musician
I compose music under a variety of guises, from comedy songs to instrumental pieces. Take a listen at my tunes.
Triple A!
Comedy double act Alan & Alan, aka Triple A! Take a look at our videos and stayed tuned for our forthcoming debut EP, filled with hit songs from our Edinburgh Fringe show Getting The Band Back Together. Coming very soon!
Podcaster
I co-hosted a short lived comedy/film review podcast I Prefer the Early Stuff with Alan McElroy; current episodes available for listening. New podcast news coming soon.
There you are, lots of content, all free! All I ask is that if you enjoy it, share it with your friends and enemies on social media. And be sure to follow me on my social channels.
Also, feel free to message me via the Contact page, whether it’s in regards to booking me for comedy at your event, collaboration for filming a video piece, use of my music in your project, or even just to say “Story!”. I’m a personable sort and would love to hear from you. If you wish to use any of the content from my website in your project, simply hit me up and we’ll chew the fat on that.
Oh!... in the words of Columbo: "just one more thing..."
I've hidden an easter egg somewhere on the site, a secret page accessible by a hidden link. The reward for finding it is an exclusive video of some thematically relevant stand up comedy. What a hoot!
Happy hunting!
