Hailing from Old Hickory, Tennessee, rising stand-up comedian Nate
Bargatze is selling out shows across America. Nate followed in the
showbiz footsteps of his dad, a former clown turned world class
magician, who’s influence is seen on Nate’s 2015 debut special
‘Full Time Magic’ and his debut album “Yelled at By a Clown.”
Nate’s half-hour Netflix Special “The Standups” premiered on
July 4th 2017 to rave reviews. He currently stars in a new Netflix
Special, “The Tennessee Kid”. In addition to touring the country
as a headliner, Nate toured in arenas with Chris Rock on his 2017
Total Blackout Tour. He currently has a deal with 20th Century Fox to
develop his own TV show. Nate’s comedy is both clean and relatable,
evident in his six appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy
Fallon six times, following four appearances on Late Night with Jimmy
Fallon. He appeared on Conan four times, was a recurring guest on
@midnight, and had his own Comedy Central Presents in 2011.
Off-screen, Nate was part of Jimmy Fallon’s Clean Cut Comedy Tour,
and has done live shows for the troops in Iraq and Kuwait five times.
He regularly performs at Bonnaroo, SXSW, Oddball Comedy Festival,
Sasquatch, Clusterfest, and the JFL Montreal Comedy Festival, where
he’s received critical acclaim multiple years in a row. Nate was
featured as one of Esquire’s ‘Best New Comedians’ by Jim
Gaffigan, one of Marc Maron’s ‘Comedians to Watch’ in Rolling
Stone, one of Variety’s “10 Comics to Watch” for 2015, and as #1
on Vulture’s ‘50 Comedians You Should Know’ in 2015. His debut
one hour special, Full Time Magic, premiered on Comedy Central that
spring, followed by his debut album, “Yelled at by a Clown,” which
reached #1 on the iTunes Comedy Charts and remained on Billboard’s
Top Ten Comedy Charts for weeks. He continues to tour across the
country and internationally.
