Brad Williams: The Growth Spurt Tour

Doors open 6 p.m., show begins at 7 p.m.
Pound for pound, Brad Williams is the funniest comedian in the country right now, and has become one of the most in-demand comedians working today. Williams started doing stand-up comedy as a teenager and has been touring successfully ever since, routinely selling out prestigious venues all over the country and world.
Williams has parlayed his live performances into a multitude of stand-up television appearances, including The Tonight Show, Dave Attell’s Comedy Underground, and Jimmy Kimmel Live. His first one-hour special, Fun Size, was the highest rated special on Showtime, and a year later, he followed that up with his second one, Daddy Issues, which was even more successful than the first. His third special in three years was an uproarious one, hosting some of the edgiest comedians in the country from the prestigious Montreal Just For Laughs Festival. His last groundbreaking special on Netflix, The Degenerates, garnered more huge ratings and rave reviews.
Also an accomplished actor, Williams has appeared on numerous TV shows and feature films, including FX’s Legit, Sam and Cat, Mind of Mencia, Pitboss, a recurring role on the Hulu original show Deadbeat, and memorable roles in a plethora of movies, including Little Evil, produced by Scott Stuber (Ted), as well as the Netflix original Christopher Guest film, Mascots, and most recently Reno 911: It’s A Wonderful Heist.
Recently, Brad became the first stand-up comedian to headline a Cirque de Soleil show in their 30 year history, when he agreed to launch—and do a three month run of—their newest show Mad Apple, at the magnificent 1200 seat New York New York Theater in Las Vegas. The show became an immediate smash hit to rave revues, singling out Williams for his incredible ability to captivate his audiences with his extraordinary performances.
In addition to stand-up and acting, Williams co-created and co-hosted one of the most successful podcasts in the world, with friend and fellow comic Adam Ray, entitled About Last Night, which was always a mainstay on the iTunes charts during their five year run. Additionally, he is also a regular contributor with a series of incredibly funny appearances on several national radio and podcast platforms, including KROQ’s Kevin and Bean Show and The Adam Carolla Show.
Williams’ humorous and inspiring observations on disability, relationships, sex, and race consistently win over audiences; proving anyone can overcome their shortcomings. His high energy live performances frequently produce standing ovations from audience members; which prompted the late Robin Williams to call him “Prozac with a head.”

Community Drum Circle
2025-07-13 16:00 - 17:30
Feel the Beat: Community Drum Jam Brings Unity Through Rhythm at City Walk BHAM
Over two decades ago, musician and facilitator, John Scalici, made a bold decision—to step away from touring with bands and instead channel their energy into something far more personal and impactful: community rhythm. What began as a desire to escape the grind of the music industry evolved into a passion for bringing people together through the power of drumming.
“I wanted the focus to be on empowerment, inclusion, motivation, and inspiration through rhythm,” he explained. And that’s exactly what the Community Drum Jam at City Walk BHAM has become—a place where rhythm serves as a universal language that transcends barriers.
A Jam for Everyone
The Community Drum Jam (CDJ) is exactly what the name suggests—a communal, interactive drumming experience open to all. It’s not a performance or a class, but a shared moment where people from every background, age group, and ability level gather to connect on a basic human level through rhythm.
“Rhythm is a UNIVERSAL language,” he emphasizes. “Once you know where the ‘pulse’ is, you can interact with it and the other people in the circle.”
From gently guiding participants to shifting grooves to keep things fresh, the facilitator works behind the scenes to ensure each session flows smoothly—even though it may “look” easy.
Rooted in Birmingham
Although John has led drumming events around the city for over 20 years, the Community Drum Jam at City Walk BHAM has been thriving for the past two. Originally attempted as a year-round event, the jam now takes place seasonally—spring through fall—with a particularly magical December session held beside the Christmas tree.
No Experience Necessary
Whether you’ve never touched a drum or you’ve been playing for years, all are welcome to join. The sessions are entirely free, and John brings at least 20 drums for anyone to try out. People are encouraged to bring their own instruments if they have them, but it’s not a requirement.
Special attention is given to young children, who are invited to explore softer instruments in the center of the circle with the support of a parent. It’s a safe, joyful space to simply “hit things” and begin developing a love for rhythm.
A Creative, Healing Space
More than just music, the drum jam is a form of expression and even healing for many. Participants include dancers, hoopers, painters, writers, and more—all drawn to the rhythm in their own unique way.
“People come for different reasons,” the facilitator shares. “For many, this is a healing experience—a release of emotion, a chance to connect and be accepted.”
Whether someone is battling illness, navigating personal struggles, or just looking for a creative outlet, the drum circle offers support, connection, and joy.
