Knock’em Dead is a three month long national stand up comedy tour featuring Andrew Ouellette and Jake Daniels. This isn’t just a live show but a documentary being recorded for release by Netflix, featuring New York City based comedian Andrew Ouellette. His last tour earned him a world record for covering all 50 states in only 48 days, including an extended tour of Australia. Accompanying Ouellette is award winning filmmaker Jake Daniels, who is recovering from a 2-year battle with cancer to make his triumphant return to stand up and cinema. The country wide mayhem begins April Fool’s Day on the Coast of California and stretches all the way to the East Coast. Stopping everywhere in-between from Minnesota to Texas. Knock’em Dead is coming to a microphone near you, exploring anecdotes of love and tragedy… and a few fart jokes.
The tour will help raise money for Ben Towne Center for Childhood Cancer Research in Seattle, Washington.
“Two great comedians with one very powerful show.” – Stefan Adcock, The Roseville Tribune

New York City based entertainer Andrew Ouellette is the subversive embodiment of underground comedy; this trailer-raised 9th grade drop out dances on the line of hilarious and twisted.
By the age of twenty-eight Ouellette had toured all 50 states; producing a tour of 50 shows/50 states/50 days. By age twenty-nine he did it again with an official Guinness World Record attempt for Fastest US Comedy Tour: 50 shows/50 states/48 days. Shortly after that he headlined his first international tour in Australia with rave reviews.
Although Ouellette has been seen doing everything from interviewing the Octomom to performing on the television show Supreme Justice With Judge Karen, he’s at his best when it comes to the high-energy irreverence of his live performances. Andrew crawls into the spotlight, reaches down his throat with shaking, ink-stained hands and pulls out his soul for your simple amusement; with his self-deprecating introspection, he brings you as close as you can get to the brink of madness.
