2021 GRAMMY-nominated comedian, podcaster, director, and producer Nate Bargatze is selling out shows worldwide. Hailed as “The Nicest Man in Stand-Up” by The Atlantic and a “Rising Star” by CBS Morning, the Tennessee native’s 2015 debut album, Yelled at By a Clown, topped the iTunes Comedy Charts and stayed on Billboard’s Top Ten Comedy Charts for weeks. His 2017 Netflix special, The Standups, and 2019’s The Tennessee Kid earned rave reviews. His 2021 Netflix special, The Greatest Average American, received a Grammy nomination for Best Comedy Album. His latest, Nate Bargatze: Hello World, became Amazon Prime’s most-streamed original comedy special in its first 28 days. Signed to Universal Music Group Nashville’s Capitol Comedy label, Bargatze’s clean, relatable humor shines in appearances on The Tonight Show, Conan, and more. He graced the cover of Variety’s 2022 comedy issue and has been praised by Esquire, Rolling Stone, and Vulture.
