Steve Byrne's high energy, physical style of comedy make him one of the hottest young comedians touring the country today. He was born to a Korean mother and an Irish father, which provides him with a wealth of material. His new hour special, Steve Byrne's Happy Hour, premiered on Comedy Central earlier this year to rave reviews. He appeared in Jeremy Piven's vehicle The Goods: The Don Ready Story as well as with Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon in Four Christmases. He was a series regular on NBC's The Real Wedding Crashers. His standup has been featured on NBC's The Tonight Show, ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live, CBS's The Late Late Show and BET's Comic View.
Steve has been a featured comic at The Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal, The HBO US Comedy Arts Festival in Las Vegas and The CanWest Comedy Fest in Vancouver. He has featured for Colin Quinn on a USO tour in Iraq as well as for Drew Carrey in Afghanistan. He has been part of several national comedy tours including The Jameson Comedy Tour, Vince Vaughn's Wild West Comedy Tour, and his own national MySpace comedy tour. He won the MySpace Standup Or Sitdown Comedy Challenge and his Comedy Central half hour special was voted one of the best of all time in the Comedy Central Standup Showdown.
Steve's lack of ego and outstanding work ethic make him one of the most sought after comedians in clubs and colleges across the country.
