Stuffed-full of laugh-out-loud moments!
Hifi Pig, Edinburgh Fringe 2023
Huge Amounts of Fun!
Theatre & Arts Review, Edinburgh Fringe 2023

What happens when a songwriter invites innocent bystanders on the streets of Edinburgh to share their darkest, most embarrassing secrets?
They end up as COMEDY SONGS in his CONFESSIONAL MUSIC BOX!
Hugely relatable, Tom Veck brings charm and warmth to his show, where domestic ditties mingle with stories from his peculiar past and the confessions of strangers.
With SELL OUT SHOWS, 5* REVIEWS and a nomination for ‘Best Newcomer’ by The Space Uk last year, this is truly an act not to be missed!
It’s songs in the key of strife! And you just might win a prize in the Naffle - the world’s naffest raffle!
"So Funny, silly and relatable! I'm still enjoying the show 2 days later! - Eleanor, Frome
"His songs are brilliant, the 3 minute songwriting was genius and the Naffle (comedy raffle) is just bonkers. I never win anything but I left the show with a small ceramic pig sitting on a toilet! I actually love it." - Phil, Glastonbury
THE SONGS
Tom Veck's songs are hugely relatable, cleverly crafted ear worms which will have you laughing at him, yourself and the world!
But it's not just Tom who will be sharing his dark secrets, embarrassing memories and secret fantasies. He's writing part of tonights set TODAY, as innocent bystanders reveal their not-so innocent stories to be instantly transformed into comedy songs!
Here's a few of Tom's which may or may not be performed in his Edinburgh show:
THE NAFFLE!
You know those items at a car boot sale which nobody in their right mind would ever actually buy... Well somebody did, and he's giving them all away in his free comedy raffle 'The Naffle'. It could be YOU!!!
THE SONGAMETHINGY
THE WORLDS FIRST FULLY AUTOMATED, HALF HUMAN - HALF MACHINE SONG WRITING THING!
At last year's Fringe, Tom used this mind blowing device to write over 77 songs in one week. This year, he's taken the best of those songs and done something very special...
THE CONFESSIONAL MUSIC BOX
Inside the flashing, smoke-filled confessional music box 40+ wooden avatars lay in wait.
Each represents someone who shared a comedic confession or embarassing memory with Tom last year and each one has it's own 1 minute comedy song!
As part of Toms's 2024 show, the audience will select these painted wooden people from the box and get to know their darkest secrets through the medium of song!

Barbara Gonzalez
Everybody needs to see this show!! Tom’s songs had me giggling and laughing out loud for their silly relatable-ness. There’s candour and warmth and the whole show is a celebration of the quirkiness of our shared humanity. And there was a random raffle thrown in too! What the veck? we loved this- go see it!
Jenny Collins
Hilariously silly and wonderful show (the only one in the Fringe to feature a naffle, I'm sure). Tom Veck is a kind of mix between Kurt Cobain and Harry Hill (well, ish). Hugely talented and very funny. Highly recommend!
Lily Hunter
Absolutely hilarious! I came with a group of friends and we all left in tears of laughter. Tom even took in one of my embarrassing stories and is turning it into a song. If there’s one comedy/music performance to see at the fringe….it’s this!
Matt Smith
Tom's songs had me laughing so much my sides hurt! 

Each song is finely tuned and will be relatable to any audience that are lucky enough to see his show...get your naffle tickets ready! NOT TO BE MISSED!
Jon R
Weepingly and retchingly funny. How one person extracts such material from members of the public is beyond me, and thats before he starts on his own stories. Engaging, light-hearted, accomplished - a fabulous talent to be discovered.
Juliette Bevis
The most fun you will have at the Fringe! Tom's witty and insightful songs had the audience roaring with laughter. What's more, if you are lucky enough to meet Tom on the Mile with his songamathingy, he might write a song for and include it in his show. This show is an absolute gem, get a ticket, you won't regret it!
Rob Veck
Well, of course this will be a somewhat bias review being Tom’s dad, but he only went and wrote a song about me reluctantly sharing a pudding with “she who must be obeyed” - pretty much true as well
Paul Callaghan
Creative improve songs that make you cry laughing.
