Biography

Half-Sikh, half-European US comic Arj Barker tried stand-up comedy as a dare, at the age of 19, and was instantly bitten by the bug. He dropped out of college and hit the road, and has rarely stopped since.

As well as his native USA – where he has appeared on all the late-night shows including Letterman, Conan, and the Tonight Show - he regularly appears on the international festival circuit across the UK, Australia and New Zealand and beyond. He appeared in Edinburgh every year from 1997, when he won the Perrier best newcomer prize, to 2000.

He co-wrote an off-Broadway show in 2004 called the The Marijuana-Logues, a parody of The Vagina Monologues about dope-smoking

That same year he landed the lead role in an NBC sitcom, Nearly Nirvana, in 2004. But he was later replaced by the show's creator, Ajay Sahgal, and still the show never aired.

In 2007, he won a recurring supporting role in the HBO hit Flight Of The Conchords, playing Brett and Germain’s friend Dave.

Arj is the funneist guy person on the planet. I saw him in Melbourne the other week and i was cryin with laughter

Josh, April 2005


Arj is hilarious! I might only be 14 but I have listened to The Marijuana Logues on the CD and almost made me piss my pants.

Kristen Hughes, January 2005


He is a comical genius! Who doesn't love him?

Vanessa, January 2005


I saw Arj last night in Mill Valley, he is off the charts. Love him!

Lynda Bennett, January 2005


I saw The Marajuana Logues in Manhattan twice. Of all three comedians, Arj had me pissin the most. I hope that show comes out on DVD soon. The views that Arj portrayed were so similar to my own, and that's what makes him so damn funny. His talent is incredible

Manson, January 2005


Extremely funny, topical and sexy.

Diane Thorne, November 2004


I've seen his special thrice and laughed the entire time all three times. I hope to see him live one day.

Evan, November 2004


I saw Arj at the Leeds Festival in a tiny tent with a largely difficult crowd. He didn't get a fair deal. So he did what any great comedian would have done. he made every one of them sit up, take notice and, most importantly, laugh. Top marks. Bizarre but great
