After graduating from college, John Garrett accepted a position with
a Big Five accounting firm, providing consulting services to many large
corporations while becoming a Certified Public Accountant (CPA). John
decided to attempt an open-mic performance after realizing how many people
are consumed in their corporate jobs and needed to laugh.
Since then, John Garrett has been heard on The Bob &
Tom Radio Network, seen in concert with Train, opened for
Louie Anderson at resort casinos, and participated in numerous
comedy festivals. Tracks from his debut comedy album, Outside
the Box, can be heard on both XM Satellite Radio and Sirius
Satellite Radio.
Audiences across the country find that he is the adorably obnoxious
guy they wish they had in their boring office, unless of course they
were his manager. His unmatched facial expressions and uniquely clean
observations of the people around him have left audiences in hysterics
while looking at everyday things with a disturbingly new perspective.
