A fresh and captivating new voice in the tradition of American satire from Will Rogers to Bill Maher, Chris Bliss delivers smart comedy for the information age. A Tonight Show favorite, Jay Leno has called him "one of the brightest comedians around", adding "I really enjoy this man's work."
He's opened hundreds of concerts, for major stars like Eric Clapton, Kenny Loggins, and Julio Iglesias, with multiple headline appearances at the Just For Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal, as well as the Kilkenny Festival in Ireland.
In 2006, the video of his remarkable variety finale, set to the Beatles' Abbey Road medley, became an internet phenomenon, logging an estimated 40,000,000 downloads. The story was covered by ABC, NBC, CNN MSNBC and FOX, with feature articles by the Washington Post, USA Today, the AP and Time Magazine, bringing much-deserved attention to Chris's new national non-profit project, MyBillofRights.org.
The video was even posted on Ringo Starr's website, causing British R&B artist FatBoy Slim to invite Chris to star in his new music video, "Old Pair Of Jeans", and to perform the song live in Chris's tour-de-force debut on "Late Night With David Letterman".
Smart, insightful humor, capped off with a world-class variety finale that your audience won't soon forget - - Chris Bliss is two of the best in one outstanding performer.

"Chris Bliss has performed at our Peak Performance Award Dinner to an audience filled with both resellers and vendors of high tech computer equipment. Using tidbits of data regarding the audience he crafted a comedy routine and juggling finale that brought them - erupted them - to their feet. His humor was cutting-edge without being rude and his practiced routine showed the depth of professionalism that all people could easily appreciate. We will continue to use Chris as we build future programs and presentations."

"I have served for several years as Chair of our firm's Partner Retreat Committee. Each year, among other things, we hire a comedian or entertainer to perform after dinner. This year for our retreat in Las Vegas, after watching his demo and hearing about his appearances on the Tonight Show, we hired Chris Bliss. He was absolutely fantastic! Every partner I talked to afterward said that he was the best entertainer we have ever had. I have never heard a bunch of lawyers laugh so hard in my entire life. I recommend him highly."

"I just wanted to send a word of thanks your way. Our annual Vendor Meeting and Golf Tournament last week was a huge success due to the superb performance of Chris Bliss. You said he would be a big hit - and he was! I would say the standing ovation from our crowd was a sure indication they liked what they saw. I had many people come up to me after the show to express their appreciation for the outstanding performance that Chris gave that night."
