Big Jay Oakerson Spreading Comedic Mayhem Across America

07/29/2010
.
Big Jay Oakerson has announced a brand new set of stand-up comedy dates! Big Jay will be visiting many locations such as Kansas City, KS, New York, NY, San Francisco, CA, and Sacramento, CA!

Big Jay will also be performing for the remainder of the summer on the Mayhem Festival. He will be introducing bands in between sets, performing his hysterical brand of comedy, as well as walking around and interacting with the crowd.

Comedian Big Jay Oakerson currently has a new full length, digital-only album, An American Storyteller on Comedy Central Records. Oakerson's story-based style of stand-up comedy got its start after a series of dead-end jobs, including driving strippers and escorts around his hometown of Philly. Now the New York City resident has made comedy his full-time job, flooring audiences with true tales of odd threesomes and bizarre sexual encounters. An American Storyteller, recorded at Standup New York, is a one-hour onslaught of unbridled awesomeness and raunchy rock 'n' roll hilarity.

Comedian Oakerson has emerged as one of the most sought after attractions in the industry. Only a ten year veteran, a youngling in the world of stand-up, Oakerson has already performed at two of the most prestigious festivals in the business, the "Just for Laughs" Comedy Festival in Montreal and the HBO "U.S. Comedy Arts Festival" in Aspen, CO.

Oakerson is currently starring on the hit IFC show "Z-Rock," where he received critical acclaim for his performance as "Neil", the sexually ambiguous owner of a NYC rock club. His television credits include COMEDY CENTRAL's "Premium Blend" and "Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn," multiple appearances on BET's "Comic View" and P. Diddy's "Bad Boys of Comedy" on HBO. Oakerson can also be seen hosting Spike's "Movies On TAP" with Patrice O'Neal.
