CHAD DANIELS BRINGS THE LAUGHS ON THIRD COMEDY ALBUM FOR STAND UP! RECORDS AND DEBUTS AT #6 ON BILLBOARD

Natural Selection Finds Humor in Slightly Skewered Take-No-Prisoners View of Everyday Life

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LOS ANGELES, CA (WEDNESDAY APRIL 30, 2014) – Chad Daniels (www.chaddaniels.com) latest release, Natural Selection, is currently available for purchase via iTunes, Amazon and the Stand Up! Records store (http://standupcrap.com). It debuted at #6 on the Billboard Comedy Charts.

Daniels acidic material (cut with underlying sweetness and served up with a knowing smirk) perfectly encapsulates his take-no-prisoners style of comedy. Even though he was born and raised there he’s not interested in Minnesota Nice. With his onstage swagger and arsenal of incisive, uproarious material, he practically bullies the audience into loving him. Weather talking about teenage masturbation, marital stupidity, the irony of being rewarded for losing weight, Dad’s who finish projects their wives start and for all you new parents – the value of tummy time. Nothing is too sacred to be off limits.

In the last decade alone, Daniels has performed in the New Faces show at the prestigious Just for Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal. He’s been on The Late Late Show on CBS with both Craig Kilborn and Craig Ferguson. In 2006 he was on Comedy Central’s Live at Gotham and release three prior CDs. Two Minutes for Stale Hacking which was self-produced, Busy Being Awesome and You’re the Best both on Stand-up! Records. He was named “Artist of the Year” in comedy by City Pages in 2009. Additionally, Daniels had a half-hour special called Comedy Central Presents… Chad Daniels, which was voted #5 of all time in 2010. Moreover, he was one of 13 comedians that have the honor to say they were on the Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien. In 2012, he won the Gilda’s Laughfest Competition, performed on Conan’s new show, and released a free one-hour special called As Is on the Internet.
