Hi! I’m Chris Cubas and I’m a stand up comedian based out of Austin, TX. You might know me from my multiple appearances on Comedy Central on such shows as @Midnight & Jeff Ross’s Roast Battle. In 2013 I was named a finalist in NBC’s “Stand Up NBC” talent search and one of Comedy Central’s 9 “Comics To Watch”. I am the write, producer and star of the documentary special “Chris Get’s Money” for the Fusionnetwork, which tackled the issue of income inequality. I am also the host of “Canceled” a podcast where my self and a guest watch and discuss TV shows that only lasted one season.
The only thing I love more than comedy is cute animal pictures. Seriously, send me cute animal pictures. I’m not kidding.

In a city known for its obsession with original music, SKYROCKET! is one of the most creative and inimitable cover bands ever to emerge from Austin, Texas. Or anywhere. It all started when a group of friends, some of Austin’s best-known songwriters and recording artists, discovered a common craze for the 1970s era. They resurrect the hits from many different decades and styles, fearlessly making the songs matter again. And they will MAKE you like it — with a dance party like no other. MUSIC
