Brian Bates is a Nashville-based stand-up who turns everyday detours into sharp, family-friendly laughs. You may have seen his Dry Bar Comedy specials, heard him pop up on the Grand Ole Opry, or caught him on the road at clubs, theaters, and churches nationwide. He co-hosts "Public Figures" with Aaron Weber and Dusty Slay, a weekly hang that blends curious rabbit holes with quietly ruthless punchlines. Recently, he even appeared in Nate Bargatze’s feature film "The Breadwinner."

Onstage, Bates favors clean, tightly built stories about marriage, travel, and being delightfully in over his head, delivered with a patient rhythm that sneaks up and crushes. If you like jokes that reward listening, you’ll love a Brian Bates set. Buy Brian Bates tickets at Vivid Seats to secure your spot and turn a good night out into a vivid memory.
