Travis Nelson

Travis was raised where Kurt Cobain learned to smile, in Grays Harbor, near the rain forests of Washington State. Too tall to be an astronaut, he’s settled on space cadet and travels the world with a personality as magnetic towards people and animals as it is towards mistakes and misunderstandings. His act intertwines real experiences with absurd and imaginative meanderings, he invites the audience to escape into the sometimes dark but always lighthearted playground of his psyche.

Travis has made a name for himself touring across the United States and Canada bouncing between comedy clubs, theaters, colleges, cruise ships, and a million different bar gigs. His first comedy special, “To Touch A Cloud,” was released by Dry Bar Comedy in October of 2021 and has over half a million views. Travis performed at the 2019 Moontower Comedy Festival, opening for Vir Das and Dana Gould. He’s also performed in the 2016 Seattle International Comedy Competition, 2018 Cape Fear Comedy Festival, 2018 Westside Comedy Showdown in Santa Monica and won “Best of the Fest” at the Burbank Comedy Festival in 2018 as well as making the top 8 comics out of 101 selected for the Main Event of the World Series of Comedy the same year. He most recently performed at the first annual Upper Left Comedy Fest in Seattle (2022) and can also be heard on the LaughUSA Sirius Satellite channel.
