Heywood Banks

Heywood Banks is not your normal stand-up comedian - he is simply one-of-a-kind. Dressed in a plaid jacket and wearing dark-rimmed glasses, Banks' style is all his own. Equal parts genius and buffoon, this songwriter/comic/singer/poet/musician is a cult hero and pop icon whose comic routine appeals to a variety of people, from college student to business people to grandmothers. Banks intersperses his humorous observations on life with twisted, inventive, bizarre songs sung and played in a variety of styles. Just a few of his national television credits include the nationally syndicated "Entertainment Tonight," A&E's "Evening at the Improv" and MTV's "1/2 Hour Comedy Hour." He is also a regular guest on the nationally syndicated radio program, The Bob and Tom Show.
