Super Hans, the crack pipe lovin', wide eyed wannabee musicians in Peep Show, has made it. He's set to play some of the best venues in the UK on a huge tour.
The character inspired by Danny from Withnail and I is easily one of the country's most loved creations and the actor Matt King's decision to take the character out on tour began with verty modest expectaitons.
So I'm gonna be DJing as Superhans this summer. Watch out for me at festivals, Ibiza, small pubs. Choonz & jokes innit. #superhans #djhans

But the small pubs in the above tweet have grown into full blown venues. He is playing Moth Club, where Lady Gaga just played, which is a small pub on Wednesday for his first headline show in the capital. But the next time he's in London he'll be at Oval Space, which is 1000 cap. Things are definitely on the up for him as he's attracted so much good attention and tickets are in ridiculously high demand.
Inspiring the enthusiasm of people who are about to see him, Super Hans says: "Ever heard anyone mix The Beatles with Run The Jewels, Bowie, Lifelike and Kris Menace into ‘I've Got The Power by Snap’? No. No you fuckin' haven't. But you will, now that SUPER HANS is ALIVE! Get yourselves amongst it at Leeds, Manchester, London, Liverpool… and eventually the entire universe”.
