About the Artist:
With his place cemented as one of the true legends of comedy, comedian Bruce Bruce continues his career as one of the best in his craft. Although known for his adult comedy, Bruce prides himself on not using vulgarity to win a laugh. 
Bruce is one of the nation’s favorite standup comedians and can currently be seen on three national comedy tours, “LIT AF Tour” with Martin Lawrence, “The Real Mike Epps Tour,” and the “Royal Comedy Tour” with Sommore. He is also featured on the Netflix original comedy series “Family Reunion” as “Brother Davis”, a hilarious foil for Loretta Devine’s character.
On the feature film front, Bruce has made cameos in Ice Cube’s “XXX: State of the Union”, “Idlewild,” and “Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector.” He also appeared in the Steve Harvey comedy “Think Like a Man,” the Chris Rock- directed, “Top Five,” and most recently in “The Trap,” “Undercover Brother 2,” and “Miracles Across 125th Street” with Nick Cannon.
Penguin Publishing released Bruce’s first memoir Baby James Brown, which regales its readers with hilarious stories from his childhood and experiences that shaped Bruce Bruce into the comedian he is today.
Bruce’s comedy can be traced back to when he was working as a chef directly out of high school, entertaining his customers with his humor while cooking up mean BBQ dishes. He then worked as a Frito-Lay salesman and managed to get hired to do standup comedy sets for their corporate meetings. Eventually, Bruce brought his comedy routine to the Comedy Act Theater in Atlanta, where he instantly became an audience favorite. When BET’s “Coast to Coast” came to town searching for talented up-and- coming comedians, Bruce was selected and ultimately appeared on the show three times.
In 1993, Bruce made his first appearance on HBO’s “Def Comedy Jam”; followed quickly by an impressive appearance on the “Showtime at the Apollo.” He was host for two seasons of BET’s “Comic View”, and the comedian competition show on BET “Coming to the Stage.”
He has made guest appearances in music videos with Ludacris and the Ying Yang Twins (after being named in their hit song “Salt Shaker”), Quad City DJ’s “Come On Ride the Train (Ride It)”and Outkast’s “So Fresh, So Clean.” Most recently, Bruce appeared in the KEM music video, “You’re On My Mind.”
He is a frequent guest on national radio shows and podcasts, including Kevin Hart’s “Comedy Gold Minds”, Marc Maron’s “WTF,” “85 South Show,” with DC Young Fly, and Netflix’s “Strong Black Lead.”
Bruce’s memorable comedy festival appearances include the prestigious, Just For Laughs Comedy Festival in both Chicago and Montreal, Laffapalooza in Atlanta, GA, and the US Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, CO.
