GOD'S POTTERY
People's Republic of Komedy Featuring Kevin Hyder & Derek Sheen
7 p.m. door, 8 p.m. show | $10 advance, $10 day of show | 21 and over
"Few topics are as ripe for parody as evangelical Christian youth groups. Jeremiah Smallchild and Gideon Lamb, the two "inspired and inspiring" men who make up acoustic Christian folk duo God's Pottery, mine the Bible-thumping kids' movement for all its worth." ~ The Onion
Christian singing duo Jeremiah Smallchild and Gideon Lamb, aka "God's Pottery," didn't just leap onto the comedy scene – they strummed, jigged, and joked their way on. In 2008, the surprisingly straight-faced singers captured the attention of millions on NBC's Last Comic Standing with hits such as "The Pants Come Off, When the Ring Goes On" and "Jesus, I Need a Drink."
International triumphs include a 2006 Best Newcomer Nomination at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, which was followed by a sold-out return run in 2007, and a selection to the Flying Solo series at the 2007 Montreal Comedy Festival.
They have toured extensively throughout the US and played numerous festivals, including Seattle's Bumbershoot, Washington State's Sasquatch Festival, and the Charleston Comedy Festival, which they headlined in 2009. They currently have an EP out on Comedy Central Records, God's Pottery: Live at Comix! And their first book, What Would God's Pottery Do?, is available from Crown Publishing Group.
