Capitol recording artist, comedian, and star of stage, film, and TV, Rodney Carrington will bring his live stand-up comedy show tour, Laughter’s Good, to the Redding Civic Auditorium Sept 4, 2014. Tickets are available online at: http://reddingcivic.com/rodney.
This multi-million selling artist has released eight major label albums, garnered Gold and Platinum records, had his own sitcom, Rodney on ABC; a co-starring role in a major movie, Beer for my Horses with Toby Keith; a one-hour Comedy Central special; and he regularly sells out concerts in the U.S. and Canada. Rodney currently has several new projects in development, including the re-release of his very first CD, Rodney Carrington Live, C’mon Laugh You Bastards, and the much anticipated album of new songs and material entitled Laughter’s Good. Both of these albums will be the inaugural projects released on Rodney’s very own record label that he has recently formed. There are also two television specials planned for the summer of 2014. CMT will premier the all new Laughter’s Good and will re-air his extremely popular Live at the Majestic show.
Rodney has appeared on countless other TV shows, including the ACA (American Country Awards), hosted the American Country New Year’s Eve Live show on Fox, and had his own Comedy Central and CMT specials. He won “Supporting Character of the Year” from the CMT Music Video Awards for his appearance on the Trace Adkins’ music video “I Got My Game On,” and starred in a comedy sketch music video of his song entitled, “If I’m the Only One,” with guest appearances by Jennifer Aspen (Rodney, GCB, Glee), Nick Searcy (Rodney, Justified) and Toby Keith which aired on CMT.
Another of Rodney’s projects of which he is very proud is the Rodney Carrington Foundation, a 501c(3)which he founded that benefits charities who need a helping hand. Rodney added “author” to his list of accomplishments with the release of his first hard cover book entitled Rodney Carrington, Coming Clean published by Hatchette Books.
According to Pollstar, Rodney has been one of the top ten highest grossing touring comedians for the last ten years and among the top 4 or 5 the last several years.
Rodney’s popularity derives, in large part, from his connection with his audience, both at his live shows, and through social media. And so far in 2014, he shows no signs of slowing down!
