| LA’s Brently Heilbron has been honing his craft in clubs since the age of 14 when he would have to sneak past bouncers to perform his routine. His debut album, Phantom Parade of Love, is a thought provoking, hilarious ride through the new era of show biz animals, animatronic entertainers, and an all-out battle royal with the melon-smashing ghost of comedy past.
A native of Austin, TX – where he was voted Austin’s Best Stand-up and described as “one of the most prolific and inventive comics anywhere.” by the Austin Chronicle – Brenlty has opened for such diverse acts as Daniel Johnston, Rudy Ray “Dolemite” Moore and MiniKiss. He has produced and directed cult hits including The Richard Simmons Mysteries and Hooray For Gregory Peck’s Ass!, both of which received glowing reviews and sold out houses following tours between New York and Los Angeles. Brently has become a staple at the HBO and Comedy Central Workspaces for new material. In addition, Brently has written sexy ukulele music for the German band, the Neu Tickles, composing the theme song to the viral hit “Ask A Ninja.” Brently’s co-written musical Hooray For Gregory Peck’s Ass! has been called the “solacement of my later years” by the famous actor. He continues to expand his growing fan base through his weekly charity auctions at Amoeba Music where he has helped raise over $150,000 for the victims of Hurricane Katrina. Also, his word-for-word, live rendition of R. Kelly’s epic masterpiece “Trapped in the Closet” raised funds for P-Flag and other charities. Brently made his television debut last season on “Significant Others,” an improv-based show for Bravo and NBC Studios. Currently he can be seen on Comedy Central’s Motherlode. It’s a new era in comedy and Brently – according to LA Weekly – is “leading the parade!” |
