From headlining at New York City's famous Caroline's Comedy Club to performing at San Jose's 20,000 plus capacity Shoreline Amphitheater, Joey Medina commands on stage. Along with headlining almost every major comedy club in the country, Joey Medina has performed throughout the world from Bosnia to Egypt for the U.S. Military.
