Gordon Baker-Bone’s new comedy album Nobody? Just Me? will be released by Comedy Dynamics on August 3, 2018 available to buy or rent on iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, and many other platforms.
In his debut album, Gordon covers every topic from police brutality, to his personal love life, to reasons why he loves Kanye haters. He grabs hold of the crowd from the very beginning and coaxes them to join him on this obscure journey, no matter the topic. The album was recorded in Baker-Bone’s home state of New Jersey.
“This album is the best way to get to know me within an hour,” said Gordon Baker-Bone, the comedian, himself.
Gordon Baker-Bone is a comedian who was born and raised in Newark, NJ and he is the co-host of the weekly podcast – “The Bad Advice Show.” He’s from the same city that gave you Michael B. Jordan and Whitney Houston. He embodies both ‘urban’ and ‘sophisticated’ styles and gives you obscure references to get a peek into his life. Gordon is inspired by his family and by drug dealers that pay child support on time. Through his fast-paced, fun comedy style, Gordon finds a way to get everyone on the same page and laughing the entire time.
