Comic Ed Hill on using his family as material and coming to Houston's The Riot Comedy Club. kingedhill rudyards
It’s been a long pandemic, and Canadian comic Ed Hill is finally ready to get back out of the house. “I basically haven’t been anywhere for the past two years, so the last time I was in Houston was about four years ago,” the comic explains over the phone. Hill, who will be the headlining two nights at the newly comedy focused Rudyard’s on April 29 and 30, is coming off releasing his first special and gearing to tape the next.
“What I realized was that any moment the most interesting stories and most introspective moments I could come up with are actually the most minute trivial moments. Almost like since there was essence of meaning to it, but when you actually look behind it, there is so much meaning to it and I just wasn’t aware of it at that time. Something as simple as what I talk about with my mom, where she always taught us to stand up for ourselves and there was this place she always took us for ice cream.
I was a battle DJ, a hip hop DJ, so I don’t know how the two can compare," he laughs."I do have a music background, I got my performance degree in piano when I was 16, actually. My parents wanted me to have a skill I could use that would be helpful in the future, and uh, that’s definitely not a helpful skill.
The special brought Hill many new fans, it was one person’s opinion that soared above the rest: Louie Anderson, the Emmy-winning comedy great who tragically passed away on January 21 from complications related to a long battle with cancer at 68.
