This was once written of me:
"With a reckless style that is blazing its own path, Brett Martin’s comedy is a refreshing take on Standup. His Comedy is straight from the heart and mind of a man who fits seamlessly on the outer limits of life. With an almost confessional style and jokes that can come dangerously close to the edge, Brett Martin’s comedy leaves you laughing and thinking at the same time."
His Resume includes regular play on XM Satellite Radio XM’s ‘Laff Attack’ and ‘The Comedy Store’ in London, England. Martin has also featured in countless comedy clubs, colleges and festivals. Blessed with a spirit akin to Hunter S. Thompson, the sex appeal of Neil Young and a wild unfiltered mind, Brett Martin’s name will be a fixture on the Standup Comedy scene now and for the future.
