SLADE HAM

Hailing from Houston and averaging more than 200 shows a year, SLADE HAM has performed in fifty-four countries on six different continents over the last twenty one years.

Whether in Amsterdam, Toronto, or Texas, he cuts right to the heart of what makes the audience tick.

He recorded a full-length album in a gap in the pandemic, debuting 90 minutes of material never-before-performed material at a sold-out Houston Improv.

He’s an arm’s length away from the 1000th Whiskey brothers Podcast episode. His second book comes out in 2022; his first, Until All the Dragons Are Dead, was a best-selling memoir about life on tour.

He took a Comedia Award at Just for Laughs in Montreal, wrote for The African Film Critics Awards, headlines The Whiskey Brothers Special on Amazon, and toed up across from Survivor’s Russell Hantz on A&E’s Flipped Off.

His real passions lie on the road, however – traveling the world and collecting stories. Slade leads an average of three tours a year into the most remote sites the US military can muster. He’s been dropped off by Blackhawk helicopter to do spontaneous sets for soldiers in the Iraqi desert and the mountains of Afghanistan.

He has free-climbed mountains and been swimming with sharks. He blew out his Achilles tendon dancing to Irish music. He’s wandered Australia’s outback, been lost in Cambodian jungles, and hiked a good part of the Andes. He ran from the cops in the Philippines and was escorted through Cairo in an armored convoy.

He is anything but boring.
