He began his career in stand-up comedy in 2005, going on to perform over 2,500 gigs across the UK circuit and appearing on national television, including BBC One, ITV, and Channel 4.

Kind is the author of five books. His works include his debut comedy memoir Stand Up and Deliver (2011), The Gig Delusion, Hidden in Plain Sight, and The Wayfarer: Through the Pain. Towards Redemption. Along the Pennine Way. His writing covers a range of topics, including life on the comedy circuit, mental health, grief, and Christian theology.

In addition to his books, he is a regular presenter on the Premier Unbelievable? radio show and podcast, as well as a frequent contributor to Premier Christianity Magazine. He lives in Newcastle-under-Lyme with his two daughters.

“Andy Kind has always been a masterful storyteller but he seems, ironically, to have climbed to new heights with this. The Wayfarer is a triumph of humour and pathos.”
