Long Island Comic/Actor/Podcast-Host Chris Roach to Tour with Kevin James  Image

Coming from his stint opposite Kevin James on CBS' "Kevin Can Wait", Long Island's own Chris Roach will once again be teaming up with his former on-screen partner on his current comedy tour! Roach will bring the laughs opening for James on a string of upcoming theatre dates which include stops at The Paramount in Huntington along with PA, MI, and MO!

A Ronkonkoma, NY native, Christopher Brian Roach has appeared in film and television from Comedy Central to The Michael J. FOX Show, Limitless, The Onion Sports Network, and had a recurring role as Rodney the loveable mental patient on ABC's One Life to Live. He regularly performs stand-up at some of the biggest and best known stages in the tri-state area such as The Borgata in Atlantic City, Gotham COMEDY CLUB in New York City, Governor's Comedy Clubs on Long Island, and many more. Following "Kevin Can Wait" he skyrocketed to fame, appearing on United Stations Radio, SiriusXM with Jim Breuer and his fellow castmates, The Anthony Cumia Show discussing his former NYPD career, and interviews with famed comedy scenester Jeffrey Gurian, and The Laugh Button among many others. His 2017 music video "Ronkokomo" (A Long Island-centric parody of The Beach Boys hit) went viral, racking up over a million views on social media.

A lifelong hockey fan, Roach hosts the Comedians on Hockey podcast with fellow comedians John Trueson and Anthony DiDomenico with guests that have included former pros like Ron Duguay, Sean Avery, and Brian Propp. He also hosts Long Island Explained with Steve Belanger where one Long Island specific topic is discussed weekly ranging from the Amityville Horror to the Culper Spy Ring with guests that have included actor Steve Guttenberg and comic/actor/radio-personality John Melendez. Chris also enjoys spending time with family and friends, and as a big believer in giving back - he often spends time doing charity events and sharing his comedy. For the past several years, he's worked with Angela Gulizio of G & G Talent Management.

Roach has been on roll bringing side-splitting comedy to the masses, and now with more dates opening for Kevin James on the way AND an upcoming SiriusXM special being recorded for 800 Pound Gorilla Records at Governor's COMEDY CLUB in Levittown, NY on June 22nd, fans have plenty more reason to laugh!
