About Aaron

Aaron Naylor is a Chicago-based comedian from Kansas City. In 2013, he performed at his first open mic at Laff's Comedy Caffe after moving to Tucson, AZ for some reason.

Shortly after, he moved back to Kansas City and won the 2014 Local Comic Standing competition. He quickly became a Midwest favorite, placing 2nd in the 2016 Cleveland Comedy Festival, winning the 2017 Funniest Person in Wichita, and was featured on season 8 of Comcast’s Trial by Laughter.

He has also shared the stage with comedians like Todd Barry, Sam Tallent, and Ron Funches. His comedy has been featured on Comcast, Comedy Juice, and the whole entire internet.

In 2021, Aaron was named the Funniest Person in Kansas City by KC Magazine, while also co-founding the Fountain City Comedy Festival. In 2023, he released a book called "Things I Wrote" to acclaim, he thinks, and shot his first comedy special "Born Illiterate" with Four by Three Productions. He tours across the country regularly, so if you’ve got some hugs, please give him some.
