What to expect

With over 20 years experience, Leif Skyving is a true professional with a wealth of material enabling him to perform in front of any type of audience, from night clubs to arenas, to small company (and private) parties, and corporate special events such as conferences and conventions.

About

Born in Sweden, raised in L.A., Leif began his comedy career over 30 years ago at the world-famous Comedy Store in Hollywood CA, and has shared the stage with such great acts as Weird Al Yankovic, Howie Mandel, Paul Rodriquez, Steve Alan, and Jimmy "JJ" Walker among others.

On a “road gig” in Caldwell Idaho he met his wife to be and seeking his fortune moved from Hollywood to Idaho, where even the potatoes are famous. Leif who started off in comedy as a carefree bachelor is now the proud father of two (and people ask where you do you get your material?)

Leif has appeared on The Comedy Network's Comedy at Club 54 and Comedy Kitchen, Last Comic Standing, ABC's Three's Company and General Hospital. Leif’s performances are played regularly on XM and Sirius satellite radio.

Major casino appearances include the Riviera and Bally's in Las Vegas and Trump Plaza in Atlantic City. Leif's corporate clients include: Coca Cola, ARCO Oil, BP Oil, Pioneer Newspapers, Idaho State Police, Idaho Association of Counties, and Teton Wireless Television Inc.
