Jason Banks at Dayton Funny Bone
Jason has a unique and refreshing style of comedy that has landed him on some of the nation’s most lucrative stages, including The World Famous Comedy Store and The Apollo Theatre. His hilarious, over-exaggerated stories have secured his position as one of Columbus’s top comedians, having been named funniest person in Ohio in 2008, and funniest person in Columbus in 2013.
During the 2020 pandemic, Jason created a TikTok account and started making content, which now has since amassed over 9 million followers, over 270 million likes and over 1 BILLION views. Jason’s viral skits detail the misadventures of his fictional son Derek and his friends, all played by Jason.
In addition to creating content online, often inspired by his 10-year-old twins, Jason performs on some of the biggest stages all over the country. After winning numerous competitions in his home state of Ohio — including the “Funniest Person in Columbus Contest” at the Columbus Funny Bone — Jason started touring the U.S. regularly. He’s appeared on both seasons of Laff Mobb’s Laff Tracks on TruTV and most recently recorded his first hour special in Atlanta, which will be released in 2023.
Jason has performed in multiple comedy festivals across the country, including the prestigious Boston Comedy Festival, and has been featured on Sirius Satellite Radio, Kevin Hart’s LOL Network, NBC’s Stand Up for Diversity, and Laff Mobb’s Laff Tracks on TruTV.
