Word on the street
“Buy This. Just. do it. [...] A master class of comedy music in album form.”
“[Sam & Bill are] huge. Apparently also a best seller on Amazon. #ProudIThink”
“Please buy the album. But if you can figure out how to support Bill but not Sam, that’d be great for me.”
“The term “comedy music” makes me cringe because I find it typically means “bad comedy paired with bad music,” but Sam & Bill pull off the rare feat of writing hilarious jokes AND great songs. Also, they’re not assholes.”
“[My fiancee] spent the whole snowstorm walking around our apartment singing “Yes All Men.” Buy Sam & Bill’s new album [...] if you want to end the battle of the sexes in your household.”
“Their new album Sam & Bill Are Huge (available on Spotify, iTunes, and Amazon) recently hit #1 in Amazon comedy, and it’s easy to see why. The energy behind each of their songs speaks to the deep, personal enjoyment that the duo gets out of their music, and it’s seriously contagious.”
“With their flawless blend of seemingly benign folk music, comedic lyrics, and fearless attitude, they are quickly becoming a local favorite [...] The best comedy folk duo in Manhattan. Do yourself a favor and check them out.”

Music Video #1: Yes All Men
Directed by Victor Varnado (CollegeHumor, Comedy Central, Nerdist), "Yes All Men" gives a visual to the 80s throwback We Are The World aesthetic of Sam & Bill's track. With today's political climate of increased social awareness giving rise to the toxic politics of Mens' Rights Activism, "Yes All Men" is a sarcastic anthem to straight white male "perseverance" in the face of their perceived struggle.
Music Video #2:
I Don't Know What Sex Is
Another collaboration with Victor Varnado (CollegeHumor, Comedy Central, Nerdist), "I Don't Know What Sex Is" is a reducto ad absurdum of teeny bopper boy bands, with an act so innocent, they don't know what to do with their no-no parts.
