Sam Ellefson

Sam, now based in Denver, is originally from a suburb of a suburb in Minnesota. After he left small-town America for the Pacific Northwest, he started his comedy career with a grassroots comedy show in college that earned two Northwest Emmy Award nominations (This is not fake. It is a very real regional awards ceremony). Sam is the ultimate middle child whose easy Midwest storytelling style combines with his charm and quick wit to have you laughing hard in your seat. Sam’s comedy has been featured in festivals all over the country and he regularly works at some of the best clubs west of the Mississippi. He recently released his debut comedy special “Minnesota Nice” which was featured in Paste Magazine and is available now on YouTube.
