A semi-finalist in the ‘BBC New Comedy Awards’ and a runner-up for ITV’s ‘Stand-up Britain’ award, Coombs’ work has been variously described as “incredibly stylish, with up-to-the-minute stuff” (John Pidgeon) and “like The Strokes beating the s*** out of Westlife in a car park” (Time Out). He has also taken part in the ‘Just For Laughs’ comedy festival in Montreal, where, according to Variety magazine’s Tamsen Tillson he “set tongues wagging”.
Other notable achievements include hosting the ‘ILMC Music Conference’ at Claridges, appearing in an ad campaign for Levi’s and performing stand-up in Las Vegas.
