Tony Sam is a hard man to get your mind around. By combining old-school, audience interaction comedy with an edgier, barroom-trivia champ feel, Sam masterfully handles the room, demanding to be called T-Bone, re-enacting customer service encounters, and creating the unlikeliest of Nobel winners: the astrophysicist who sounds like he’s serving brats and beers outside Brewer’s Stadium. He’s got a classic vibe that brings to mind Bob Hope, Dick van Dyke, and Johnny Winters, even early SCTV pioneers Joe Flaherty and David Steinberg. A performer who can turn on a dime, Sam expertly manipulates his voice (he claims that proudly sporting a beard means you have to speak in a higher tone, just to balance out the testosterone) and slides into and out of the characters in his jokes, reaching to Julia-Child-heights for some and a low growl for others. In the meantime, Sam also sports the laid-back modern cool of Kyle Kinane or Daniel Tosh and the zany willingness to go anywhere, like a member of Monty Python’s Flying Circus. For a man who claims to be a “Scaredy Cat,” Tony Sam is a brave, try-anything comedian in full command of his audience. Oh, and his beard knows all.
