Surreal Stories, Songs and Live Shows about growing up in 1970s Britain
by Andrew Brammer
Welcome to the wacky, zany and anarchic world of Stumpy Sanderson and his gang. Through podcasts, songs and live performances, hear about hair-raising japes, scrapes and capers as Stumpy and his gang of mischievous comic reading working class-boys crash, bang, wallop, hurtle and skid their way through 1970s Dunstable.
Nostalgic, surreal and hilarious 1970s memories from a world of Raleigh Choppers and Tomahawks, flared trousers, punk rock, football cards, the Corona Man, Hai Karate, Vesta Beef Curry, smoking behind the bike sheds, suburban mayhem and so much more.
Whether you lived through the Seventies yourself or simply want to know what it was like, these stories offer an astonishing and bizarre journey back to a very different time.
“Lost in Andrew’s surreal and funny world, I blissfully forgot reality.”
Unearthed from the Time Capsules
All stories are written and told using their original source materials; scribblings and scrawls discovered inside the two Time Capsules buried by Stumpy Sanderson and his gang.
The first capsule was buried in 1979 and was unearthed in 2019. The second was buried in 1983 and unearthed in 2023. Together they contained forty-four stories and fifty-five original songs, preserving a unique and extraordinary record of adventures, escapades, friendships, rivalries, outrageous characters, general uproar and 1970s chaos.
What Listeners & Audiences Say
“That was fantastic. Andrew is a master storyteller. We spent the evening being transported back to our own 1970s while being completely engrossed in Stumpy’s stories.”
“A hilarious and engaging cross between Jackanory and Tiswas.”
“Lost in Andrew’s surreal and very funny world, I blissfully forgot reality.”
What Stumpy Sanderson Says
“There were two types of boys at our school; those who made things and those who broke things. We did both; we made mischief and we broke the spirits of the teachers who tried to teach us.”
