Jerry Law

A staple in the Bay Area comedy ecosystem, he reliably packs clubs across Northern California. He operates between mainstream road dog and regional legend, serving as a heavy-hitting anchor for local lineups and a frequent voice on SiriusXM’s Quake’s House. He thrives in rowdy rooms, projecting enough physical energy to overpower a weekend crowd that just wants to drink.

The material functions as a series of aggressive public service announcements. Law will spend ten minutes shouting about the financial mechanics of dating, warning men that driving a girlfriend’s car without their name on the insurance is just operating a stolen vehicle. He builds jokes out of his own self-improvement, turning a plant-based diet into a loud, defensive stance against friends who think he looks too skinny. He bypasses quiet vulnerability entirely. Even when he talks about being a first-time father, he filters the premise through pure exasperation.

He came to standup after serving thirteen years in prison. He started performing upon his release to fulfill a promise he made to an inmate serving a life sentence, eventually turning that second act into a career.
