Kevin James Thornton has built a loyal following with his hilarious, heartfelt and occasionally cringey moments of self reflection (with a splash of autotune) about growing up gay in a religious community in the 90s. He has over 2 million followers on Instagram and TikTok, which was the break he was waiting for after years of working as a struggling comedian. His first special “Be Yourself” was recently released by Comedy Dynamics and can be seen on Amazon Prime and Apple TV. He is also newly signed to Stimola Literary for his first autobiographical book. His 2023 tour saw sold out shows around the world where a recent review of his show at The Stand in Newcastle UK said, "Warm, witty and disarmingly self-deprecating... There is a tender centre to Thornton that makes his comedy sing; a delicate, relatable touch that left the crowd buoyed up and thirsty for more." (Narc Magazine, UK)
