Doug Canney
Doug is a current International touring headliner, also voice-over actor, TV actor and extra, and former 80’s touring musician. His Comedy career started in 2005 while still traveling with a band, doing jokes in between popped breakers, drummer asthma attacks and drunken after-show parties. After he sobered up and got dumped by another wife, he started writing jokes….the worst jokes ever. But, he finally got a tour, with Tribblerun Comedy tours in 2011. Subsequently doing 16 more after that, learning the craft and absolutely being terrible in front of tens of people. He got a few breaks, wound up as an extra on One Tree Hill, Eastbound and Down and Dawson's creek, with a few low budget movies periodically to collect some IMDb credit. Doug has now paid some dues and done over 9800 miles in one week on the road. Having done over 330 nights in one year on stage, he’s been called the “Human Energy Drink” by other comics because of his sometimes spastic stage persona, “his face KILLS me, his eyebrows are crazy” is heard verily at his shows. Doug spent a few years working as a house-comic at the World Famous Coconuts Club in St. Pete Beach Fl. Bob Shoemaker took him under his wing, like he did Billy Gardell, Mitch Hedberg, Larry the Cable Guy and Jim Breuer back in the day, they were all regulars at Coconuts. The Shoemaker family helped shape Doug’s comedy and made him the weirdo comedian he’s turned into. He’s been seen on HBO, NBC and the WB Channel!
