Ty Barnett, a Chicago native, got his start at Seattle's "Comedy Underground." Since then, his star just keeps rising! Dedicated to "bringing the funny", his shows have been called "hilarious" (Whoopi Goldberg), "thought provoking", "edgy", and have earned him countless Television appearances on every major network including The Tonight Show w/Jay Leno, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Samantha Who, and Bad Boys of Comedy. He has a notable presence online through his web series "This is the Bulls@%t I'm Talking About". Ty has the rare ability to make you, your kids and your grandma laugh. He's "a tremendous talent" and a "truly gifted performer".

His previous CD Bout Damn Time is one of the most played/requested albums on SiriusXM. He has a Comedy Central special and a one hour special (Issues) and this year this brand new CD Grown Man...Baby Steps. He was one of the final two on the most watched and only Emmy-nominated season of Last Comic Standing. Jay Leno says Ty is: "...one of the funniest comedians working" and the Hollywood Reporter called Ty "one to watch". Barnett is a series regular on Discovery Family Channel's Babies Behaving Badly and Beasts Behaving Badly.

He was also the host of The Food Networks Mealin' and Dealin'. You may have seen him in a recurring role on Til Death on FOX, Life In Pieces on CBS, or perhaps the sitcom Samantha Who, Nick Mom's Night Out or Tosh.O. He has also appeared in a myriad of national commercials, including Farmers, Toyota, Bank of America, and many more.

With charm and style that transcend race and age, Ty's ability to rock any and all audiences has made him an international favorite on stages from the South Side of Chicago to theaters in London. You don't "go to" a Ty Barnett show, you "hang-out" with Ty Barnett.
