#smart comedy

Comedian of The Month for July:

Tim is a regular on the national comedy club circuit and has the credentials to prove he is no stranger to the bigger and brighter stages in comedy. The way he got there is quite simple: he doesn't go for the easy joke. As he puts it, "I provide you with two-thirds of the joke, and you provide the other third. It's like 'do-it-yourself comedy." Born and raised in Nashville, this wordsmith's influences are a who's who of comic geniuses. George Carlin, Richard Pryor, and Steven Wright all appealed to him because of how smart their material was. That lesson was never lost on him. Anyone who has seen him live knows that when Tim Northern takes the stage, he uses a brand of humor rarely seen. His style can be aptly described as humor for the thinking person, a unique combination of intellect and fun-filled observation. And yet, it's mainstream humor that everyone understands. Simply put, Tim Northern is a punster of the highest caliber.
