“Low-key intensity and dead on humor†is how the Denver Post described Billy D. Washington. His clever but quirky approach combined with his undeniable skill as a pianist has made Billy D. Washington a formidable force in the world of stand-up. After a 5-year stint as a Houston Police Officer, he followed his heart, took to the stage and has since assembled an impressive body of work for this part-time church musician and full-time national headliner. Billy has been featured at the prestigious Montreal Comedy Festival twice, Aspen Comedy Festival and for 3 years traveled with The Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin, as her opening act. He has also appeared on HBO’s Def Comedy Jam, Comedy Central’s Premium Blend, The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson and spent time on VH-1 as a host and on-air personality. He is the creator of the critically acclaimed S.E.L.L.O.U.T. Comedy Tour, a group of talented black comedians who challenge America to resolve racial differences one joke at a time.
