James Adomian is a Los Angeles stand-up comedian, actor, impressionist and voice actor who first drew notice on Last Comic Standing and at Comedy Death-Ray, Scott Aukerman's weekly show at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in Los Angeles that became the podcast Comedy Bang! Bang!. His debut stand-up album, Low Hangin Fruit, came out in 2012, and his first stand-up special, Path of Most Resistance, taped at the Elysian Theater in Los Angeles and mixing stand-up with absurd characters and spot-on impressions, premiered on 800 Pound Gorilla in August 2024 and on YouTube on 19 September 2024.
