JR Williams is a Myrtle Beach-based stand-up comedian and Army veteran who turns marriage, five kids, and everyday chaos into sharp, relatable comedy. As the self-described "Everyday Dad," he mixes witty one-liners, hilarious true stories, and twisted observations about parenting, work, and the ridiculous names people give their children. He's performed at clubs and festivals across the country, including Gilda's LaughFest and the Traverse City Winter Comedy Festival, and has opened for Bill Engvall, Brad Williams, and Mitch Fatel. Sarcastic, a touch immature, and exactly what the crowd came for — whether it's a club set, fundraiser, corporate event, or private party, JR reads the room and keeps the laughs coming.
