COMEDY SPECIAL PREMIERING TONIGHT AT 5pm PT / 8pm ET
Adam Newman is back with a new hour of comedy and this time he's brought his guitar. Music! Magic! Horses! Butt stuff! This hour has it all. Blonde Medicine is releasing Jew Versus The Volcano, Newman’s 5th hour of stand-up and his third on the label. It will be released on double vinyl and is available now as a digital comedy album available wherever comedy is streamed or sold and premiering on Blonde Medicine’s YouTube channel tonight at 5pm PT/ 8pm ET. The special was filmed at Hotbed Comedy Club in Washington, DC.
Jew Versus The Volcano is loosely structured into three acts. The first offering a classic stand-up check-in about where he’s at now: recently married, traveled, barreling out of a pandemic. The second act is the age-old tale about losing one’s virginity, featuring an appearance by REM’s Mike Mills and a visit to the emergency room. The third and final act brings us to what Adam Newman has been planning all along: coming out as a (gulp) guitar comedian, offering up catchy songs about everyone’s least favorite dictator and…ham.
Jew Versus The Volcano can be ordered on vinyl that will be shipped in June, heard as a digital album now and seen on YouTube tonight.

He has his own Comedy Central Half Hour and an hour special on Amazon called Fuzzies.

Comedy Central named Adam a Comic to Watch in 2011, and he was a New Face at the Montreal Comedy Festival in 2013. They even had him back two more times to film sets for HBO Canada's Funny As Hell. Adam has three critically acclaimed stand-up albums - Not For Horses (2011) and Killed (2015) on Blonde Medicine Records, and Squirtacus (2019) released by 800 Pound Gorilla Records.
