Avery Pearson’s Comedy Special Has a Linkin Park-Inspired Song About Indigestion
Linkin Park inspired a song in Avery Perason's upcoming comedy special.
Recorded at the Dynasty Typewriter at The Hayworth Theatre in Los Angeles and co-produced by Dr. Phil impersonator Adam Ray, the special will feature Pearson — whose work has been seen on Broadway, Saturday Night Live and the ESPY Awards — and his band performing his original songs with a lineup that includes Ray, Arden Myrin ( The Righteous Gemstones), JR De Guzman and Beth Stelling (both have Netflix comedy specials), Luke Null ( SNL), Josh Adam Meyers ( Bill Burr’s Friends Who Kill), Scout Durwood (MTV’s Mary + Jane), Jeremiah Watkins (Cartoon Network’s DC Superhero Girls) and singer-songwriter Stevvi Alexander, who has performed on tour with Fleetwood Mac, Barbra Streisand and Diana Ross, and appeared in the documentary Twenty Feet From Stardom. There are also special guest appearances by Iliza Shlesinger and “Roastmaster General” Jeffrey Ross, whose upcoming one-man show, Take a Banana for the Ride, which bows on Aug. 5 at Broadway’s Nederlander Theatre, will include a song Pearson wrote for the production. The set list includes “Monster Inside,” performed by Pearson and Watkins, which is about indigestion, although the agita is not caused by Linkin Park.
