"Original. Unique. Brilliant. Prolific. Talented. Insightful. Witty. Consistent. Versatile. He simultaneously inspires me and makes me laugh my ass off." -Paul Krassner

"I opened a few shows for Roy Zimmerman in Florida. I thought then, as I think now, that he might be the most brilliant song maker alive. Combined with his utter fearlessness, he is a refreshingly dangerous man." -Grant Peeples

"Roy Zimmerman has a rare gift for songwriting." -San Francisco Chronicle

"One of the funniest, most musical and meaningful comedians you'll ever experience." -Ed Pearl, the Ash Grove

The Los Angeles Times says, "Zimmerman displays a lacerating wit and keen awareness of society's foibles that bring to mind a latter-day Tom Lehrer."

Roy's songs have been heard on HBO and Showtime, and his videos have garnered tens of millions of views. He has recorded for Warner/Reprise Records. He's shared stages with Bill Maher, The Roches, Holly Near, Robin Williams, Arlo Guthrie, John Oliver, Kate Clinton and George Carlin, and tours the country constantly with his wife and co-writer Melanie Harby when they are not at home in Northern California.

Don't miss this brilliant and funny musical political commentator and enjoy the irreverence- its contagious!
