John Hilder is an up and coming comedian who is quickly making a name for himself as one of the funniest and hardest working young comics in America. John was born and raised in the comedic hotbed of Salt Lake City, UT, but in 2004 he fled Utah for the neon pastures of lovely Las Vegas, NV to pursue a life of comedy and sin. With his quirky wit, unparalleled originality, and fearless attitude on stage, John quickly rose above the fray to become one of the most respected local comedians in the city. By seamlessly combining his goofy persona with a cynical edge, John has become a favorite in some of the biggest casinos in Las Vegas, including the Palms, the Rio, Planet Hollywood and the Mandalay Bay, not to mention comedy clubs, colleges and theaters throughout the country. John was recently named one of the top 3 comedians in Utah by the Salt Lake City Weekly, and in 2010 he released his debut comedy album entitled “Johnsense” which is available now on iTunes and Amazon. Needless to say, it is taking the country by sarcastic storm. Don’t miss the opportunity to see this quick witted, hilarious comic on his way up, years before his imminent, and heartbreaking demise.
