Ian Cognito is a British stand-up comedian known for his confrontational and aggressive style, and for being banned from more venues than anyone else.[1]
He is a regular headliner[citation needed] in the UK, and is proud of the fact that in over 20 years on the circuit, he has never appeared on television.
Comparisons have been made to US comedians Lenny Bruce and Bill Hicks, and to the Glaswegian Jewish comic, Jerry Sadowitz.[2]
Cognito obtained his Bachelor's degree at the University of Bath, and his Master's at the University of the West of England.
In December 2008, Cognito unleashed his Christmas song on the world 'Bollocks It's December Again' (available on youtube and his website). In December 2009, Cognito released his all new website, with up to date tour news, artwork, videos and merchandise.
