Biography

Tommy Ryman, a semifinalist on NBC's Last Comic Standing, is an acclaimed comedian. His oddly-adorable stand-up landed him No. 2 on iTunes comedy charts for his album, Having the Time of My Life. Named Best of the Midwest at Gilda's Laugh Fest, Tommy grew up in Minnesota jamming on clarinet for his new-age mom and kale-chip-making dad. He performs at top clubs, colleges, and festivals across the nation including the Great American Comedy Festival. Tommy was invited to be on Nickelodeon's NickMom Night Out and has a full comedy special on Dry Bar Comedy. He's worked alongside Nick Swardson, Hannibal Buress, Maria Bamford and Louie Anderson but none wear a cardigan quite like Tommy. Featured on Paste Magazine and regularly heard on SirusXM and iHeartRadio, Tommy's act can be described as absurdist and clever masked behind an endearing, innocent demeanor. A Last Comic Standing judge raved, "I have never seen anything like [Tommy] before in my whole life, [he is] one-of-a-kind, fantastic!"
