The Magic Mod – aka Ben Taylor – is a card magician and entertainer of huge esteem who can proudly count himself as a member of the exclusive Magic Circle fraternity. Born in Crawley in South London, he now lives in Belfast and has previously supported The Libertines, Paul Weller and The Brian Jonestown Massacre on tour, all people he can call friends along with the likes of Liam Gallagher, Shaun Ryder and Rick Witter.
He is heading south this spring, coming to Brighton’s Komedia on Sunday, April 14th.
Ben has appeared on Sky Sports Soccer AM, considers journalist and broadcaster Eamonn Holmes as a friend and fan (“I’ve met David Blaine and Dynamo but, for me, what he did was the best I’ve ever seen”) and appears on the Paul Weller album On Sunset.
His act astonishes, perplexes and entertains all those who witness it and is a performance wrapped in warmth and humour. Which is why people endlessly return to see him perform and why his audiences are growing with every tour, as evidenced by his sold-out run throughout the UK late last year.
Returning to his roots in the South of England, he couldn’t be prouder to be playing at the iconic Brighton Komedia. Tickets available here: komedia.co.uk/whats-on/
