Is this your first time to Edinburgh?

My brother Otto and I first played Edinburgh in 2009 with our show Super Musician and then again in 2013 with Kunst Rock (Art Rock), and in 2015 we hosted Otto & Astrid’s Haus Party which was the most fun variety show ever! This year our show Otto & Astrid – Eurosmash! has the danciest songs about aliens and fruit so we’re very excited to share this with everyone!

Tell us about your show.

Otto and I wrote all the songs – well we wrote most of them together – Otto wrote the song Look at My Fruit about…. eating fruits on a date and I wrote Body Slam which is about mixing wrestling with sex on a date with truly excellent results!

What should your audience see at the festivals after they’ve seen your show?

I think they would enjoy seeing Laura Davis, Hannah Gadsby, Children Are Stinky, Butt Kapinski and Wild Bore.
