Leeds’ street artist Burley Banksy is “freaked out” by his later-in-life newfound fame and it's making him feel anxious.
The 51-year-old, real name Andy McVeigh, confessed that he feels very nervous when he’s asked to speak at swanky dos. Plus, his 19-year-old son Danny gets embarrassed when his dad is asked for selfies from his fans and Andy isn't sure how to react.
The former primary school teacher and father-of-one is well known for painting LUFC colours on electricity boxes around the city, originating in Burley. He’s lost count of how many boxes he’s painted and has even turned his passion of brightening up Leeds into a full-time career.
