Billy Garan performing at The Comedy Cove

Billy Garanbegan his career performing stand-up at Catch A Rising Star in NYC.  He expanded his career by  joining a comedy troupe called Funny Business which toured hundreds of colleges throughout the country.  Billy's staggering list of impressions is demonstrated in his "Hollywood High"  routine where he plays all the characters in a classroom of celebrity students, ranging from Truman Capote to Sylvester Stallone.  He not only does the voices with superb accuracy, but also the mannerisms.

  Billy's high energy and machine gun style delivery have defined him as a unique talent having made him a valuable opening act for Robert Klein, Jay Leno, and Jerry Seinfeld.  He has produced, written and performed numerous radio commercials and has been doing comedy on NBC, Showtime and A&E.  His career as an actor has covered a wide range of appearances from ABC's "Phenom" & "America's Funniest People," NBC's "Saved by the Bell," & "California Dreams," and Showtime's "Sherman Oaks.

Billy's show at The Comedy Cove this weekend is also featuring Vinnie Nardiello  and  Matt Jenkins.
