It all began in church at the age of five... One Sunday, the preacher called all the kids at the Southern Baptist church to the front to ask some questions in front of all the adults. When the preacher asked a small tow-headed boy what he thought hell would be like, the boy replied, "Preacher, hell will be hotter than the Walmart parking lot on the Fourth of July barefoot." The church erupted with laughter, the little boy was hooked on the sound and a comic was born. Fast forward 25 years and Tim Gaither has been on the comedy circuit for a decade, working in 34 states so far and even going as far as Korea for the USO and our troops. In January 2009, Tim officially moved to Hollywood. In addition, Tim appeared on The Bob and Tom Show and earned the honor of "Best of Festival" at the Detroit International Comedy Festival. Tim Gaither is hilarious and a heckler's nightmare. He has great material, a quick wit and a wide range of original characters and stories, all spun together with Midwestern charm. Tim Gaither is more comfortable on a stage than in his own living room, thus making the audience feel like he is in theirs. If Tim comes to your city, don't miss the opportunity to check out his show. You will not be disappointed.
