12 days left until Asheville’s annual comedy festival, Laugh Your Asheville Off, August 13th to August 17th.
Today’s feature comedian that will be performing at Laugh Your Asheville Off is Gabe Kea.
From Kea’s Bio:
Comedian Gabe Kea’s unbridled enthusiasm for entertaining audiences is what truly sets him apart. With a personality as big as his 6’5″ frame, Gabe melds well-crafted jokes with his comedic physicality to create an unforgettable show. Gabe started performing in St. Louis after spending most of his youth living in both the United States and Canada. He eventually relocated to southwestern Ohio, where he won the 2009 “Funniest Person in Cincinnati” contest. Gabe is a former recipient of Rooftop Comedy’s Silver Nail, awarded to those that distinguished themselves in the underground stand-up scene. In addition to opening for popular headliners like Amy Schumer, Anthony Jeselnik, and Nikki Glaser, Gabe can be heard regularly on the nationally syndicated Bob & Tom Show. He recently performed with “Community” star Joel McHale at the 2013 Gilda’s Laugh Fest. His interests include hockey, beer, and reinforcing Canadian stereotypes.
