The 85south Show Tour 2024

Things are a little different down south, and that includes comedy. Now on tour and ready to take on audiences all across the U.S., the 85 South Comedy Show features three of the boldest, wildest and most hilarious comedians to ever travel the interstate that shares its name. The 85 South Show started its rise in the comedy world in 2015 when DC Young Fly, Karlous Miller and Clayton English teamed up in Steve Harvey's studio to begin recording a podcast that showcased their improv, freestyling and roasting skills. Comedy fans were quick to discover the chemistry between the three performers, whose past experiences included stints for DC Young Fly and Miller on Nick Cannon's MTV series Wild ‘N Out and English's triumphant win on NBC's Last Comic Standing in 2015. Their hit podcast brought further exposure to a trio whose comedy stylings are deeply rooted in the South they know and love so well. It spawned this sidesplitting live stage show to entertain audiences throughout the South and beyond.
