NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Southern Momma Cledus T. Judd Comedy Experience will be a night you will not forget, with Variety’s 10 Comics to Watch Darren Knight and Parody Icon Cledus T. Judd coming to War Memorial Auditorium on April 12 as part of the Nashville Comedy Festival.
Darren Knight, aka Southern Momma, from Munford, Alabama, is the fastest-rising comedian in American history. In just a few short months, he has cultivated a massive online presence, accumulating over a half a billion views across multiple social media platforms. Darren takes his persona to the stage, selling out theatres and casinos nationwide. He’s been compared to Jeff Foxworthy, as the next star of redneck comedy.
Cledus T. Judd is an American country music artist known for his daring parodies of today’s top country music hits. His bold lyrics and hysterical videos to match have named him the “Weird Al” Yankovic of country music. Judd has an impressive history, having toured with acts such as Brooks and Dunn, Brad Paisley, Trace Adkins, Toby Keith, the Dixie Chicks, Shania Twain, and Montgomery Gentry. Having released eleven studio albums and two EPs has led several of their singles to enter the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts. After hanging up his overalls for 3 years, he is “strate outta retarment” and funnier than ever with “My Weight’s Goin’ Up Down,” a parody of Morgan Wallen’s #1 Country single “Up Down” featuring Florida Georgia Line. The video premiered on CMT Music and CMT.com in late July and immediately became one of their top trending clips, hitting the CMT 12 Pack Countdown chart.
