Bryan Ricci
If you saw Bryan as a child in his family videos, you would know immediately that he has an affinity and ability to entertain. Over the years he has been cultivating his artistic strengths through life experiences. In the summer of 2000, Bryan took his act to the stage. Since his first performance, he has been relentless when it comes gaining valuable stage time. Bryan has gone on to become a regular at many clubs all over the country including The Tempe Improv, Stand Up NY, and The Laugh Factory in Los Angeles. Through performing alongside such names as DL Hughley, Chris Rock, Jerry Seinfeld and Robert Schimmel, Bryan has been able to learn from the best. He is currently on a world tour with DL Hughley performing at U.S. Armed Forces bases in Europe. His ability to turn his personal life obstacles into comedy makes him unique and memorable.

Bryan recently won the MyStudio Comedy Contest and was chosen by The Comedy Store in LA to perform on their main stage. One of his greatest comedic accomplishments to date was being the 2-time winner of the Arizona Comedy Competition. He has also been featured on Xm Satelite Comedy Radio and Rascals Comedy Hour. Bryan co-hosted "The B and Gass Show" for 4 years that aired on KWSS 106.7 fm which won for Best Comedy Radio Show by The Phoenix New Times. His wide range of topics appeal to all walks of life. This truly hilarious New Yorker is a rising star in comedy!
