BO BURNHAM

Ever since his first temper tantrum, Bo new he wanted to perform. After an awkward "athletic" phase, he started dedicating his time to school theatre. He continued to nurture his love for performance, receiving rave reviews from countless relatives.

Bo chose to attend an all-boys Catholic high school, thus giving his nickname "theatre queer" some additional validity. During the fall of his junior year in high school, Bo started teaching himself how to play piano and guitar. Soon after, he wrote and composed autobiographical songs, such as "My Whole Family Thinks I'm Gay," as non-fictional jokes between him and his friends.

On December 28th 2006, Bo recorded two of his songs as videos, and posted them on YouTube. Eight months and seven songs later, Bo's videos have been seen over ten million times worldwide, generating literally hundreds of thousands of laughs.

The songs, recorded in Bo's bedroom with a camera resting on a stack of books (couldn't afford a stand), have been remixed, rated, and reviewed thousands of times. Now amongst such an elites as "The Chocolate Rain" guy and Chris Crocker, Bo hopes to capitalize on his "success" and share his stories with the world.

Bo had a Comedy Central Presents special and released his first CD/DVD in 2009.
