Jon Pruett
Jon Pruett is an NC native and Tennessee transplant. After a 20-year military career, he made another terrible life decision and began doing stand-up. Somewhere between the bar room brawls and the dirt track tirades, he became the most "woke" hillbilly in the south.
Jon is a militant ally of the LGBTQIA+ community, part of a biracial family, STILL wears overalls, and is most likely toting a six shooter. His stories have brought raucous laughter throughout the southeast. Jon has opened for Dave Stone, Will Smalley, and Abe Farrelly. Now, Jon Pruett is ready to bring the laughs with his backwoods lifestyle and open-minded outlook to his home stage. Yall don't wanna miss this!!
