Aidan Jones: Chopin’s Nocturne
About Aidan Jones: Chopin’s Nocturne
Aidan Jones grew up playing classical piano, but failed his conservatory audition at 18. After some time focusing on MDMA, he came back to the piano and now he has combined it with comedy.
It’s his favourite piece, Chopin’s Nocturne in Eb Major, presented with jokes by a bald, Australian dickhead with a beard.
Aidan Jones is a touring comedian and headliner originally from Australia, with over a decade of experience as a working comic. Aidan has recently relocated to London where he is taking over the circuit at an exceptional rate.
His show “Chopin’s Nocturne” was highly critically acclaimed at EdFringe 2025, and he has previously been nominated for a number of prestigious comedy awards.
