Billy Wayne Davis

Billy Wayne Davis is a master of the "hillbilly intellectual" style, blending a laid-back Southern drawl with razor-sharp, subversive observations. Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, Davis has spent over two decades carving out a unique space in the comedy world. He first gained national attention as a finalist on NBC’s Last Comic Standing and has since become a staple of the late-night circuit with standout performances on Conan, The Late Late Show, and WTF with Marc Maron. His impressive resume includes touring the country with Grammy-winning artist Sturgill Simpson and recording a critically acclaimed live album at Jack White’s legendary Third Man Records. Whether he’s voicing characters on Adult Swim’s Squidbillies or dissecting modern absurdities as a frequent guest on the hit podcast Behind the Bastards, Davis delivers a performance that is as intelligent as it is irreverent.
