The exciting news of the moment, in terms of gigs, is that I’ve got a show in the Glasgow International Comedy Festival next year! It’ll be at 5pm on Thursday the 12th of March 2026, at Committee Room no 9, 18 John Street, Glasgow G1 1JY.
I’ll also be performing in the Edinburgh Fringe in the summer, and with luck also the Brighton, Buxton and Dundee Fringes as well- dates to be announced.

Past gigs
The Fringe 2025- with extra gigs 23rd + 24th August
I revised and updated my ‘Songs for the 2020’s’ show, and I had several gigs in the Edinburgh Fringe in 2025, Monday-Friday of Week One, 4th- 8th August, 3-4pm at St Vincent’s Chapel (Venue 197), St Vincent Street, plus two extra Free Fringe gigs, at 2.15pm on the 23rd and 24th, at Steel Coulson Southside, 114 Causewayside.
I also had a joint pre-Fringe gig with my wonderful wife, Beth Clarke: we did a free gig, performing as The Kale Thieves at Bridgend Farmhouse (41 Old Dalkeith Road Edinburgh EH16 4TE) on the 30th of July between 7-8pm… and I did one joint gig at Himalaya cafe on South Clerk Street with my old friend Antonia, who was visiting from California and who also sings silly songs.
Majk’s Comic Relief Silly Songathon 2025
On Sunday the 1st of June I did a Silly Song Marathon for Comic Relief at Susie’s Kitchen vegetarian cafe, 27A Marchmont Road in Edinburgh, starting at 1.30pm, and hoping to sing as many of my comedy songs as I can, up to a hopeful maximum of 100, raising money for charity, and it was open for anyone in Edinburgh to come along and listen for as much or as little of the event as they wanted to.
The Brighton Fringe – “Songs for the 2020’s”
Majk did four gigs in the Brighton Fringe in 2025, with his show “Songs for the 2020’s” specially updated and revised for Brighton, at 6.15pm on Friday the 9th of May and Saturday the 10th, and at 12.30pm on Saturday the 10th and Sunday the 11th.
“Sweets from Strangers” album launch
Majk launched his new album, “Sweets from Strangers”, with a concert at the Augustine United Church, George IV Bridge, EH1 1EL : 7-9pm on Friday 24th November.
It’s a slightly new style of Majk Stokes album, with some more serious songs to counterpoint the humour. A few of the songs some people may recognise, but there is plenty of new material that I promise you won’t have heard before. I have a friend who’s offered to write a review of the album, so I’ll post that in due course!
Please note- this was for physical copies of the album- it isn’t online yet. But if you want to buy a CD (how retro is that?), please contact Majk by email or on face book or fill in the form on the contact page.
(Thanks to Marj Drysdale for the rather elegant display!)
