Dusty Slay
Dusty Slay is a stand-up comedian with a baritone voice so smooth, it’s like champagne in your ears.
Serious Topics
Dusty walks you through a childhood in the trailer park, his adult years in the workforce, and as an occasional blackout drunk. He thinks skunks smell like weed, and leaves the serious topics like race, religion and politics up to someone who, unlike him, hasn’t drank gas out of a water hose.
TV & Radio
Slay appeared on several network shows including ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! NBC’s “Last Comic Standing”, the popular program “Laughs on FOX”, and was a featured comedian on “TMZ”. In addition, Dusty’s comedy is regularly on many nationally syndicated radio programs. They include Sirius XM, Pandora Radio, and “The Bob and Tom Radio Show”.
Festivals
He was invited to numerous comedy festivals across America. Those include: The Bridgetown Comedy Festival 2017, The Laughing Skull Festival 2015-16, The Charleston Comedy Festival, and The Cape Fear Comedy Festival. Not to mention, Dusty won both the “Fight Night Competition” and the “Almost Famous Competition” at the Charlotte Comedy Zone in 2014. Slay won The Charleston Comedy Festival Stand Up Competition two years in a row and was voted “Best Local Comic” by the readers of the Charleston City Paper in 2013 and 2014, during his years in Charleston, SC!
Alabama
Dusty was born in Alabama. His parents divorced when he was two, then there was a custody battle. His mom lost, so he had to go live with her. As a result, he split time between his dad who lived on a farm, and his mom who lived in a trailer park. When asked about his education, Slay says,
“When I was kid, my dad asked me if I wanted to go to college or if I wanted a pool. Man, I love that pool.”
Nashville
Dusty Slay is now based in Nashville, TN. There, he is a local favorite at his home club, Zanies, and opens for many touring celebrities. They include: Rob Schneider, Jeff Ross and Roseanne. However, Dusty spends most of his time on the road, where he continues to make audiences laugh all over the country. He performs at comedy clubs such as: The Punchline and Laughing Skull in Atlanta, Crackers Comedy Club in Indianapolis, The Charlotte Comedy Zone, The Stardome (Birmingham, AL), Funny Bone Clubs (Syracuse, NY; Albany, NY; Virginia Beach, VA; Richmond, VA; Toledo, OH; Columbus, OH; Dayton, OH; Des Moines, IA), WI, The Improv (Tampa, FL; Kansas City, MO), as well as many other clubs.
