Comedian Jo Koy to Release Live From Seattle Comedy Album on Today

In preparation for his next Netflix stand-up special taping later this year, Comedian Jo Koy will be releasing his first stand-up comedy album, Live From Seattle Friday, September 28th. Live from Seattle currently streams on Netflix, and for the first time ever will be available for fans to listen to on the go. The album will be released by 800 Pound Gorilla Records and available to purchase for $9.99 MSRP on iTunes, Google Play, Amazon and Jokoy.com.

"We have wanted to work with Jo for a while now," says 800 Pound Gorilla co-founder Damion Greiman. "When you watch his stand-up, you quickly understand why he is an internationally known comic that sells out theaters and arenas wherever he goes. Live From Seattle did a great job of capturing how great of a comedian Jo is and we are excited to be releasing this album. By the way, if you haven't seen Jo Koy live, stop what you are doing and go see him now!"

Koy is one of the top touring comedians today and just received the prestigious "Stand-up Comedian of the Year" award at the 2018 Just For Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal.

The comedian is currently on his sold-out Break The Mold World Tour, which will be heading to Europe next month. Koy is also confirmed to headline at the New York Comedy Festival in November, and just announced a second show at the Beacon Theatre due to popular demand. For more dates and info go to: Jokoy.com.
