Where it all began…
Made to wear polyester at the age of two and raised by a pack of savage (yet witty) left-handed, vegetarian hockey players, Sky Sands developed a bizarre and unique sense of humor at an early age.
Mixing magic, audience participation, impressions and fast paced improvisation (He has been clocked at speaking 102 words per minute…139 with gusts!) one would not call what Sky does a “show”, but rather “a unique experience.”
Sky entertains nationally, as well as abroad, headlining comedy clubs, colleges, corporate events, cruise ships, charity fundraising events and has been featured on the Cinemax & Showtime Networks, VH-1 and MSNBC, as well as highlighted on America’s Funniest People. He is also featured in the feature motion pictures “BOTTOM FEEDERS” and “YESTERDAY IS GONE.”
SKY SANDS DOES NOT SIMPLY “PERFORM”…
He ENTERTAINS.
Sky has been voted “Rochester’s Favorite Comedian” 7 times by the Rochester DEMOCRAT and CHRONICLE’S Readers’ Poll, ROCHESTER CITY MAGAZINE’S “Best of Rochester” poll, and FREETIME magazine’s entertainment poll.
He has also received “The Outstanding Volunteer of the Year Award” for his participation with WXXI’s Public Broadcast “REACH OUT RADIO” and has won 3 Telly awards for his work with United Way’s “Volunteer Connection” campaign and with Mobil Chemical; as both Actor and writer.
