Antidote Comedy featuring Aaron Naylor
November 6 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
$15
Every Thursday Modelface Comedy brings the best local and touring comedians to Asheville! This week we have local favorite Aaron Naylor on the rooftop at Antidote!
Aaron Naylor is a stand-up comedian known for his one-liners about whales and his mom. In 2013, he performed at his first open mic at Laff’s Comedy Caffe after moving to Tucson, because he felt like it.
Shortly after, he moved back home to Kansas City and won the 2014 Local Comic Standing competition. He quickly became a Midwest favorite, placing 2nd in the 2016 Cleveland Comedy Festival, winning the 2017 Funniest Person in Wichita, and was featured on season 8 of Comcast’s Trial by Laughter.
Aaron has performed at some of the best comedy festivals in the country, including San Francisco Sketchfest, Limestone, Asheville, and 10,000 Laughs. He has also shared the stage with cool comedians like Todd Barry, Sam Tallent, and Ron Funches. His comedy has been featured on Dry Bar, Comcast, Comedy Juice, and the whole entire internet.
In 2021, Aaron was named the Funniest Person in Kansas City by KC Magazine, while also co-founding the Fountain City Comedy Festival. In 2023, he released a book called “Things I Wrote” to acclaim, he thinks, and shot his first comedy special “Born Illiterate” with Four by Three Productions. in 2024, his dry bar special “those were the days” was released to acclaim and a billion views, he bets. He tours across the country regularly, so if you’ve got some hugs, please give him a few.
