Comedy Dynamics To Release Preacher Lawson: Get To Know Me
LOS ANGELES, CA – Comedy Dynamics has announced that they’re releasing Preacher Lawson’s debut comedy special, Get To Know Me, through their hybrid distribution system composed of Comcast, Amazon Prime Video, Spectrum, Apple TV, Dish, Google Play, DirecTV, Vimeo, YouTube and many more on November 24, 2020. The album will be available on Sirius XM, Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Pandora and more on November 20, 2020.
Get To Know Me gives audiences a glimpse into the life of Preacher, a fearlessly funny Floridian with a penchant for finding the humor in adversity, even when it means managing his own frustrations towards a very talented 12-year-old ventriloquist! Filmed at the adored Vic Theatre in Chicago, Preacher’s debut special offers a hilarious spin on his life struggles with kitten allergies, veganism, and cold-weather induced ashiness. The special originally debuted on BET+, and served as the first stand-up comedy special on their new streaming service.
Preacher Lawson quickly became a fan-favorite on America’s Got Talent, and America’ s Got Talent: The Champions. He can be seen on the upcoming NBC series, Connecting, and he appears as a judge on Nickelodeon’s upcoming pet talent competition hosted by Gabriel Iglesias titled Unleashed. Lawson also has a popular YouTube page that features travel vlogs, music videos, vegan/vegetarian recipes and more with his charmingly comedic twist.
“Lawson’s a crowd-pleaser who’s still coming into his own as a comedian.” Said Sean L. McCarthy of Decider.
The special was directed by Brian Volk-Weiss, and produced by Cisco Henson, Josh Lieberman, and Michael Rotenberg.
“There’s no question that Preacher is a rising star in comedy. It’s been great to watch him grow as a comedian and artist, and we’re proud to be releasing his debut special,” said Brian Volk-Weiss, Founder and CEO of Comedy Dynamics.
