Bo Burnham's self-aware mix of sharp-tongued stand-up material and musical comedy, accompanied by his own acoustic guitar, keeps winning over bigger and bigger audiences. The Massachusetts native gained an initial following with a series of online videos, which soon got him signed to Comedy Central Records in 2008. He released his first EP, Bo Fo Sho later that year. Burnham's persona as a young, observational voice often finds him dealing with “nerdy” topics, like how he uses theoretical physics to craft the perfect penis joke.
