Liam Sullivan

Liam writes, produces, directs, edits and stars in all of his own short films, with help from cinematographers Eduardo Cisneros, Rich Briglia, Neal Lett, Brandon Lawrence and David Fickas. He has taken A Liam Show to the ACME Comedy Theater, the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatres in NY and LA, and several colleges across the country.

One of Liam's most popular videos is the "Shoes" music video by Kelly, which has gone viral on MySpace and YouTube, spawning numerous fan remakes and turning Kelly into an internet rock star sensation. In 2006, YouTube staffers chose Liam's "Shoes" as one of the top 10 videos of the year and Entertainment Weekly listed it as one of the viral videos to watch. One of the re-postings of "Shoes" video has received over 18 million views on YouTube alone, and is the seventh most viewed video of all time on the site. Clips of the song have been played on "On-Air with Ryan Seacrest" on KIIS FM, on the "Kevin and Bean" show on KROQ, and by Jillian Barberie on the "Good Day LA" morning show. The song has been in the top 10 of iTunes Comedy since it debuted there - it's currently #2.

While Kelly was the first to gain traction in mainstream media, Liam's other characters and videos, such as "Muffins" and "Dr. Ulee," are gaining a cult following all their own. Since he is constantly creating new ideas and videos, each A Liam Show is fresh and may feature new or evolving characters. "My goal is to put on a show that people will enjoy, with characters that are fun to watch. My material could be described as 'provocative,' or 'strange,' but it's comedy, so I'm really just aiming for 'hilarious,'" says Liam.

Liam's roots are in sketch comedy and live theater. He performed in several comedy theaters in the Boston area and after moving to Los Angeles, became involved in the ACME Comedy Theater and Another Showcase Showdown, or "A.S.S." He has opened for comedian Margaret Cho and has performed live as Kelly in her Sensuous Woman variety show in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Miami. Liam is also an experienced TV and film actor, and has been featured on the TV shows, 8 Simple Rules, Gilmore Girls, Alias, and in the movie The Convent. Look for him in the upcoming 2007 VH1 comedy, I Hate My 30s in August, and on the road with A Liam Show tour this fall.
