Hari Kondabolu is a Brooklyn-based comedian and writer who the NY Times has described as “one of the most exciting political comics in stand-up today.” Hari has appeared the Late Show with David Letterman, Conan, Jimmy Kimmel Live, John Oliver’s NY Standup Show, @midnight, The Nightly Show and has his own half-hour Comedy Central Presents special. His critically-acclaimed debut album Waiting for 2042, which was released on legendary indie label Kill Rock Stars was one of the Top 10 Standup Albums of 2014 according to Paste Magazine. The Portland Mercury wrote that “the marriage of careful joke structure and fiercely intelligent commentary elevates this album from a collection of solid progressive punchlines to a work of art.” He has since released Mainstream American Comic and the self-released Hari Kondabolu’s New Material Night Volume One.
