More about Derek:
Derek Sheen is a cuddly mess of insecurities, a gifted, one of a kind, storyteller. He's quickly becoming a favorite among comedy fans all over the globe! He's toured with Patton Oswalt, Brian Posehn, Janeane Garofolo and Rory Scovel! His debut album "Holy Drivel" was recorded by iconic metal producer Matt Bayles (Minus the Bear, Mastodon, Isis) and is available from Rooftopcomedy.com.
NEW ALBUM is coming soon from Stand Up! Records.

PASTE Magazine: "Derek Sheen has the uncanny ability to take mundane events and turn them into over-the-top comedy. His comedy shows have delighted audiences, and now he has finally recorded one of his shows for the world to hear.
"Dylan Gadino at Laughspin Magazine: "Equal parts-playful-and-absurd approach to self-deprecating comedy."
Nate Rankin of America's Comedy: "Derek Sheen not only recites a recipe for buttermilk biscuits within his stand-up routinebut he also constructs a comedy hour that's a bigger guilty pleasure than arteries stuffed with butter and cookie dough."
Comedy-Reviews.com:"With Sheen, you never quite know what's around the corner and that's a good thing. He has a passion that is reminiscent of Lewis Black and his references will keep you on your toes."
Daniel Berkowitz of TheSpitTake-Comedynews.org: "When Sheen's at his best, he's firing everything off with nuanced diction and rhythmical precision. He develops a Carlin-esque pace to his speech that only serves to amplify the already-high level of laughs."
