Chris Garcia, a Comedian You Should Definitely Know About, Made One of Those ‘Everyday’ Montages of His Amazing Past Year

August 15, 2016
Uncategorized
chris garcia, everyday, life of a comedian, montage

Four years ago, one Rory Scovel made a montage of video that he had captured everyday for an entire year. The result was a pretty amazing glimpse into the life of what a modern working comedian is like.

After that, Brooks Wheelan made an ‘everyday montage’ showing his whirlwind life getting hired on SNL and everything in between. 

Now, Chris Garcia, one of our favorite comedians whose name should be on the tip of your tongue if it’s not already, just made his very own ‘everyday’ montage that shows him globetrotting from Dubai to all around LA to Hawaii for comedy as well as a stop to Cuba to get in touch with his roots. Like Brooks and Rory’s, it’s a look unlike you’d ever normally see what Garcia’s life is, day in, night out over the last 365 days.

Watch it here.

A record from Chris Garcia has been a long time coming given everything he’s done leading up to it including numerous Comedy Central appearances, WTF with Marc Maron, and This American Life just to name a few.

Garcia more than lives up to expectations with this very first comedy album, “Laughing and Crying at the Same Time”. 

This hour really exemplifies the fine comedic performance and craft that Garcia has honed over the years. Observational, personal, sincere, silly, structured and deconstructionist, Chris strikes a balance in almost every way imaginable here.

Please get and enjoy Laughing at Crying at the Same Time fresh from AST Records as soon as you can.

Also, you can get a vinyl release that’s due out this Summer.

Chris Garcia Turns the Tables on Making Fun of Immigrant Parents

On Friday, Chris Garcia’s debut album Laughing and Crying at the Same Time will be released off AST Records.

It’s an all around great record, but this specific preview clip is one of the many gems that takes the stand-up comedy trope of making fun of immigrant parents and, perhaps for the first time, switches it up. Chris does a pretty thorough, spot-on impression of his Dad and Mom roasting him.

This is one of many reasons why you should get Chris’ album later this week.
