McKeown was born to Irish parents in central Manchester in 1965. He grew up in the district of Cheetham. He then went on to work as such things as a social sciences lecturer and stand-up comedian, leaving him with lively tales to tell from his varied CV. He claims to have created a new genre of writing called ‘Mirthsery' across between humour and misery. He has been described as ‘a handsome version of John Lydon', ‘a tall version of Terry Christian', and as ‘an anorexic Alexi Sayle'. They broke the mould while they were making him.
