Alan Salazar jumped into comedy because a friend of his went to an open mic one night, and he tagged along, not knowing the experience would change his life. He recalls vividly his first time on stage. “I planned a four-minute set and I remember I thought, ‘I don’t belong up here,’” he said. “It was my first time. I wasn’t sure what to expect. I got literally no laughs.” But that’s changed big time, which is why he’s now on Comedy Plex’s Watch List.
Alan, who’s been heavily influenced by comedy stalwarts Dave Chapelle, Greg Giraldo and Katt Williams, is easy to find online. Check out his Instagram to begin with and find out why he made our cut.
