Daniel Radcliffe to narrate Kyle Gordon's new comedy album 'Kyle Gordon Is Everywhere'

Daniel Radcliffe will narrate Kyle Gordon's new comedy album, arriving October 2 with first single "Mr. Jambo"

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe is lending his voice to comedian and musician Kyle Gordon’s upcoming third studio album, Kyle Gordon Is Everywhere, which is scheduled for release on October 2.

According to Variety, Radcliffe will narrate the album’s interludes in a style inspired by renowned natural history broadcaster David Attenborough, adding a unique storytelling element to Gordon’s latest comedy music project.

Ahead of the album's release, Gordon has unveiled its lead single, "Mr. Jambo," accompanied by an official music video filmed in South Africa and the Kingdom of Eswatini. The song follows Barry Bergen, a fictional awkward American tourist, and serves as a satirical tribute to Paul Simon’s iconic album Graceland, which celebrates its 40th anniversary this year.

Kyle Gordon Is Everywhere continues Gordon’s signature style of parodying popular music genres through fictional characters. The album reportedly explores a wide range of musical styles, including indie sleazepop, Disney Channel-era pop and late-1990s minivan rock.

Speaking about the project, Gordon said he aimed to create a comedy album that works as both a complete listening experience and a collection of memorable pop songs. He added that he believes the new record strikes the right balance between humour and strong songwriting.

Gordon has built a substantial online following of more than 6 million across social media through his musical comedy sketches and parody songs. He has also appeared on The Simpsons and recently made recurring appearances in The Rise and Fall of Reggie Dinkins, where he first met Radcliffe.

With Daniel Radcliffe’s narration and Gordon’s genre-spoofing humour, Kyle Gordon Is Everywhere is set to offer a distinctive blend of comedy and music when it arrives this autumn.
