<a href=“http://harikondabolu.bandcamp.com/album/hari-kondabolus-new-material-night-volume-1”>Hari Kondabolu's New Material Night Volume 1 by Hari Kondabolu</a>
For years, Hari Kondabolu has done full length sets under the moniker of “New Material Night” that has allowed Hari room to breathe, play, develop, evolve with bits, concepts, premises, riffing, etc.
Usually, no such sets find its way to the light of day because comedians generally prefer a few coats of polish on an album.
However, Hari is one of the most relevant, funniest, and all around best voices in comedy right now (give Waiting for 2042 and Mainstream American Comic a listen if you haven’t already) a and really can make you appreciate the artistry of stand-up when he feels like showing the seams.
With all of that in mind, we’re excited (as you should be too) that he is releasing his own bootlegs from his New Material Nights from the past few years.
Note: “It was recorded on an iPhone & fellow comedian Sean Keane’s camera on Dec 5th, 2013 in the now defunct “Dark Room” in San Francisco’s Mission District.”
