At 6ft 9in tall, dressed all in black, with a big beard and wearing wayfarer shades, Andy Wrintmore does not look like your typical mayor.
But the 29-year-old hardcore punk rock drummer is a big hit with old and young constituents in his hometown of Frome, Somerset.
Andy, a member of punk band SickOnes, was elected to the town council by a landslide vote in 2019 and chosen to become the town's mayor in May this year.
He has earned the moniker the 'punk rock mayor of Frome' and has even been interviewed by Kerrang magazine about his new career - cutting ribbons and meeting local community groups.
