Bobby Gaylor

Standup comic and spoken word performer Bobby Gaylor was born and raised in Boston, juxtaposing his duties as guitarist in a series of failed local bands with day jobs, including gravedigging and pizza delivery. Gaylor moved to L.A. in the early '90s, working as a writer on the sitcom Roseanne and appearing on TV shows and small films before he decided to set his standup act to music. He connected with two of his friends, composer/guitarist Marc Bonilla and musician/engineer Michael Scott, and created the spoken word/rock debut album Fuzzatonic Scream, which featured the life-affirming surprise hit single "Suicide." Both were released in early 2000 on Atlantic Records.
