Stand Up Comedian

Gallagher us comedian - Country Comic/Music - Comedian Tim Wilson

Comedian Tim Wilson is unlike any comic. He never dreamed to become a famous comedian. All he wanted was play music after taking up guitar in high school. Tim Wilson was born in Georgia. In college, he took the job as a sportswriter and later was able to convince his editors to write reviews of local concerts (he has a degree in English). At an Atlanta Rhythm Section concert, Wilson submitted a demo tape containing his piece to Roy Yaeger, the group’s drummer. The demo tape didn’t seem to get Wilson anywhere in music so he decided to go into comedy.

Wilson’s extraordinary combination of musical prowess and comedy has certainly delighted fans who followed his music and comical stints. His debut album was Tough Crowd. Organizers at Star Dome Theater remembered Wilson to first appear in their club in 1983. His ranting featured everyday frustrations by a workingman. He later won a stand-up comedy competition spearheaded by Cinemax. This allowed Wilson to appear

in a series of television spots, including an interview in The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

Comedian Tim Wilson decided to tap music in his stand-up stints after his success in teaming with the duo of Pinkard and Bowden for the song “Arab, Alabama” under the independent Southern Tracks label. Additionally, Wilson produced a hit single “Garth Brooks Ruined My Life” as well as the hit “The Redneck Twelve Days of Christmas”, which he co-wrote together with Jeff Foxworthy.

After signing to Capitol, comedian Tim Wilson released his major-label debut “It’s a Sorry World” in 1999. In that same year, he followed it up with Getting’ My Mind Right”. In 2000, another album of comedian Tim Wilson titled “Hillbilly Homeboy” became a hit after the success of its first single, “The Ballad of John

Rocker.” Three years later, comedian Tim Wilson released another hit this time with a different style - his first funk concept album, titled “Super Bad Sounds of the 70’s”.

To date, comedian Tim Wilson’s albums aside from the aforementioned include Church League Softball Fistfight released on November 22 last year, The Real Twang Thang released on January 25, 2005 under EMI Records, The Twang Thang under Capitol that debuted on October 19, 2004, and I Should’ve Married My Father-in-Law under Capitol and EMI Records (2001).

This country singer is following no hero’s footsteps, but the amount of talents he’s got will surely taking him even farther from his hometown, and be recognized not just in comedy but

music as well.
