Jeremy Alder Comedy Album:
Almost A Grown Man
Out April 25th on Blonde Medicine Wherever Comedy is Bought or Streamed
Jeremy Alder’s debut comedy album Almost A Grown Man is poised for release on April 25 on Blonde Medicine. A ‘güero’ born, raised and homeschooled in South Texas, Jeremy was steeped in a world of alternative facts and fervent beliefs and learned early on to find humor in life’s absurdities. Alder started comedy 10 years ago and now he’s got an autobiographical hour of jokes and stories about growing up weirdly religious and homeschooled in Texas, young marriage, remarriage, and fatherhood. Also, plenty of God, sex, drugs, and guns to keep it interesting.
The album was recorded in the historic small town of Hillsborough, North Carolina, where Jeremy lives. Said Alder, “I recorded the album at a bar around the corner from my house. There were a lot of locals there including the mayor, as well as my wife and kids. It felt like a community event!”
Jeremy went to seminary after college, where he developed a humorous and provocative preaching style that sometimes got him in trouble. When a personal crisis led him to stop preaching and going to church, he turned to standup. The comedy community quickly became his new spiritual home, which he will be the first to tell you, is not a good thing.
Jeremy met Blonde Medicine label heads Dominic Del Bene and Jessica Mozes by coincidence outside a show and found another supportive community with their comedy label.
Almost a Grown Man will be out on April 25, 2025 wherever comedy is purchased or heard.
About Jeremy Alder:

Homeschooled in the heart of Texas by fundamentalist missionary parents with a penchant for conspiracy theories, Jeremy’s childhood was anything but conventional. Now married with children of his own, Jeremy’s material delves into the trials and tribulations of growing up homeschooled, the complications of religion, the mysteries of marriage, the chaos of parenting, and the existential crisis of aging—all with a healthy dose of skepticism and silliness, dry wit and charm.
Jeremy headlines comedy clubs and bars around the country and has opened for several nationally touring acts, including Demitri Martin, Russell Howard, Tom Papa, Aparna Nancherla, Nicole Byer, and Chad Daniels. He has been a featured performer at numerous comedy festivals, including Laughing Skull Comedy Festival, SF Sketchfest, Big Sky Comedy Festival (Best of Fest), Asheville Comedy Festival, and Cleveland Comedy Festival (Best of Fest). Jeremy’s Dry Bar Comedy special, “Purity Pants”, has generated over 6 million across platforms.
