While Engvall traveled for six years with Jeff Foxworthy, Larry The Cable Guy and Ron White on the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, he’s also used to performing solo. The American Comedy Awards named him the funniest male standup in 1992.
Engvall, born in Galveston, Texas, shares the humor he finds in everyday situations.
His first comedy album “Here’s Your Sign” was platinum and the soundtrack for “Blue Collar Comedy Tour: One For The Road” was nominated for a Grammy Award. Engvall wrote his autobiography “Bill Engvall–Just A Guy,” acted in the movie “Delta Farce” and starred in the TV program “The Bill Engvall Show.”
In 2013, Engvall and his professional dancing partner advanced to the finals of Dancing with the Stars, finishing fourth. And in 2015, he recorded the Netflix special “Just Sell Him For Parts.”
