Joey Z and Hot Dad

Joey Z and Hot Dad coheadline an evening of surreal/musical comedy! Outside at The Creek and The Cave 05/17 8pm $10adv/$15dos 

Hot Dad is a comedian and musician (frequently both) who resides in Austin, TX, but spends much of his time online as a YouTuber and Twitch streamer. His music has been featured on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Hamilton's Pharmacopeia (Vice TV), and in the viral fan-made reanimated collaboration, Shrek Retold. Since launching his online career in 2014, his strange and often surreal emotional comedy music has been experienced by millions across the web. He also has never had a sense of smell.

Hot Dad is currently performing an exciting (potentially) and brand new-ish sampler-based solo performance including comedy, music, sound FX, and more.* Experimental. Unusual. Funny? These are all words that describe his Very Cool™ and Extremely Epic® comedy set. Are any of them true? You be the judge!

*More is not guaranteed.

Joey Z is an avant-garde comedian/entertainer based in Austin TX. His act contains various elements of stand up comedy, story telling, songs, visuals, mime, and other performance art. He’s also the host of the touring variety event Glow Show which was called “a definite must see” by the Austin Chronicle and nominated for best comedy show in Austin ‘22 & ‘23 via the Austin Chronicle. Joey’s live act has been described as Adam Sandler or Steve Martin having a bad acid trip, or if Marc Rebelliet was a noise musician. But Joey likes to call his genre “sound clown”. Joey has been performing for over a decade at places such as the Lincoln Calling Music Festival, SXSW, Moontower Comedy Festival (4X) and a comedy set for Luck Reunion during the High Holidays. In early 2025 Joey signed with Personal Space Booking out of Chicago and on March 28th 2025 self released an audio version of his old one man show TRIP SITTER which is essentially an homage to his old psychedelic party self. Joey has shared the stage with such acts as Danny Brown, Reggie Watts, and Wolves of Glendale.
