Kleon the Comedian
Baltimore native Kleon built his stand-up career the hard way, choosing comedy at eighteen over the streets that raised him. He found his gift for making a room laugh at ten, then proved it at nineteen by out-dueling a stage full of seasoned comics to win his first competition. Two decades later, that instinct remains his through-line: unscripted, conversational sets pulled straight from real life.
His takes on men and women, drawn from lived experience rather than punch lines built for effect, have earned him one of comedy's most loyal followings online, with hundreds of thousands tracking his sets across Instagram and Facebook. That connection translates directly to the road, where Kleon has sold out rooms in more than 29 cities, including runs at Atlanta's Fox Theatre and Philadelphia's Met Theater.
Off stage, Kleon directs and edits his own films. A Warner Brothers Short Film Contest win for "Standing in the Mountains" and the independent feature "Bluffin" are among his credits, proof his instinct for story runs deeper than the mic.
Nashville catches him for an intimate night of stand up comedy, the kind of close-quarters set that rewards a room actually paying attention. Expect City Winery's dining room to fill early; a plate worth sharing and a glass poured just right make the ideal prelude to a set this personal. Doors open ahead of showtime, so plan to arrive, settle in, and let the evening build.
