Rodney Carrington has built a cult following with his no-holds barred stand-up that includes comedy and music about the funny side of redneck lifestyles, women at bars, men acting like men and oddball sex.

Carrington gained massive exposure from his appearances on syndicated morning radio shows like “Bob and Tom” and “John Boy and Billy”. His often hilarious crude songs like “Don’t Look Now”, “Little Things”, and “Fred” have kept his fans new and old coming back for more.

His latest album, “El Nino Loco”, just hit store shelves and is the follow-up to his hugely success release “King Of The Mountains.” Rodney is currently enjoying a string of success that includes a Comedy Central special, his first DVD, Rodney Carrington Live at the Majestic Theatre and a book, Coming Clean. Rodney also recently co-starred with Toby Keith in the film “Beer For My Horses,” which Carrington wrote.
