Perry Kurtz

Perry has appeared on American Bandstand, America's Funniest People, Dangerfields HBO Young Comedians Special, Love Connection(winner), Extreme Gong (winner), Let's Make A Deal, America's Got Talent, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and at Comedy and Rap Events around the world. Each of Perry's shows are based on the activities of the audience as they do it. No 2 shows are alike. He opens with his 'strip routine’ dance (like no one else)(bring dollar bills), tells stories about his life, interacts directly with the crowd, and closes with a song involving the audience as he tells them what they are doing at THAT moment in time. Good luck trying to explain THIS act to your friends. Perry has opened for Andrew Dice Clay, Sam Kinison, Whoopi Goldberg, Robin Williams, and Blue Oyster Cult, Maggie Mayall, The Village People, The Dead Kennedys. Perry has sung his "Narrational Improv Blues", based purely on what the audience is doing as it happens, with The Greg Allman Band (twice), Huey Lewis and The News, The Tommy Castro Band, The Tubes, Chris Isaak, WAR (twice, once with Robin Williams), Warren Haynes, Hootie and The Blowfish (before they were famous), Great White (before the fire), Clarence Clemmons (Bruce Springsteen), The Jefferson Starship, Fleetwood Mac, B.B. King, and Sammy Hagar (who backed Perry up on Perry's guitar). Perry also is the Star of 'Drinking Beer and Smoking Cigarettes’ which has OVER 1.6 MILLION views on YouTube, produced by Jon LaJoie. "Perry Kurtz is VERY unusual. Before he speaks a word, there are four minutes of continuous laughter. He possesses the `boy-next-door' quality, like Dana Carvey and Kevin Pollack, which makes you laugh at/with him. Every show is as unique as he is. Outrageous, strange, yet extremely likable, Perry Kurtz is a performer who MUST be seen to be believed." San Francisco Calendar Magazine
