more »JJeff MacKinnon is an important comedian who continually refines the art of stating his opinions as facts. He tells jokes that he writes. He tells them real funny-like. He once described himself as "one of the best comedians his parents ever gave birth to."
Jeff can be seen seeking attention and validation in comedy clubs, theaters, bars, VFW’s, coffee shops, college auditoriums and/or cafeterias and sidewalks adjacent to those venues. In 2011 alone, he was featured at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Boston Comedy Festival, Los Angeles Comedy Festival, Detroit Laughs Festival and Laughing Skull Comedy Festival. His debut comedy-album, Bring Me To Your Mother was released in September 2011 and sold more copies than zero. Jeff’s comedy has been seen and/or heard on Byron Allen's "Entertainers" NBC's "The Doctors" and Sirius XM. He is also a founding member of Groundlings-bred Hot Ice! Sketch Comedy and the improv-comedy team Ryan James’ Ponies.
Here are common adjectives used in comedy bios that may or may not apply to Jeff's "skits": clever, inventive, hilarious, up-and-coming, rising, falling, established, sharp, cerebral, veteran, crowd-favorite, witty, palsy, top-notch, best-ever, touring, favorite, egotistical, delusional, self-aggrandizing. Only Jeff can say what's true.
Despite considering himself an important artist that should not be subjectively measured against fellow artists, here are some COMPETITIONS where Jeff didn't finish last:
2012 SF Sketchfest (San Francisco, CA)
2011 Edinburgh Fringe Festival (Edinburgh, Scotland, UK)
2011 Boston Comedy Festival (Boston, MA)
2011 Laughing Skull Comedy Festival (Atlanta, GA)
2004 - 2006 Comedy Works New Talent Search (Denver, Colorado),
2005 Wiseguy’s Rocky Mountain Laugh Off (Salt Lake City, Utah),
Jeff has written comedy about comedy for:
-LaughSpin (coverage of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2011)
-Examiner (various opines about Los Angeles comedy events)
-Project Breakout (video-series about the comedy industry)
-ManiaTV! Internet Television (on-air host of Loudmouths on Latenight, Weekend Surf, Wasssup!, Freakshow & Citizen Journalism)
Fueled by insecurity and plenty of caffeine, Jeff continues to gain attention with the fresh material he consistently delivers from his small body and big mouth. Bringing Jeff to you is a no-brainer! Although, he would appreciate if you brought your brain to the show. « less
