Tickets: $30 (fees not included)
It’s Saturday night in a piano bar, and Julian Velard takes the stage with something to prove. After a lifetime of trying to make his musical mark, Velard shares his original songs mixed with sharp, self-aware humor confronting the existential problems of being a 44-year-old father, husband, and never-has-been. Velard dives headfirst into the chaos of middle age, fighting to keep his artistic integrity alive while juggling the relentless demands of adulthood. With surprise guests and spontaneous interactions, the audience is in for a ride, never knowing where Velard will lead them next. It’s a night at the piano bar you’ll never forget.
Julian Velard is a classic entertainer—a rare combination of Nilsson-meets-Newman, piano-driven singer-songwriter sensibility and razor-sharp comedic timing.
He’s become a cult sensation in America and Europe, and an in-demand performer in his homebase of Los Angeles. All those facets are on display on his newest album “In the Middle of Something”, an introspective song cycle about the pitfalls and promises of middle age.
Velard’s quick wit and musicality have made him a fixture in the comedy world. He’s been a regular guest on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show and NPR’s Ask Me Another, and shared stages with a host of talented comedians including Will Ferrell, Reggie Watts, Drew Carey, and Jack Black.
In 2023, he served as musical director and on-stage foil for a star-studded cast in the Give Back-ular Spectacular, produced by Paul Scheer and Marta Kaufman, a live fundraiser for film and TV crews affected by the WGA and SAG strikes.
