Two-time Barry Award nominee Damien is widely regarded as one of the rising stars of Australian comedy.
Damien toured his raw, assured and Barry nominated hour of Power - I Can’t Believe I Cared - to audiences around Australia and the world in 2015. Damien took the 2016 festival scene by storm with his latest offering: Sell Mum Into Slavery. This show saw him nominated for the Barry award for the second year running. The ABC then selected Damien and his show to be filmed as part of their Next Gen series, on Australian screens in late 2016. Damien was also invited back to perform a new set at Just For Laughs Sydney.
Damien is a member of the “True Australian Patriots” - as seen on their incendiary Facebook page, on The Weekly with Charlie Pickering and most recently winning the Director’s Choice award at the 2016 Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
