His unique life experiences (such as being adopted by a Caucasian family at age 15), punk rock mentality, and stage presence combine to make for a truly original voice in comedy. Shapel is preparing for what looks like a very busy near future, opening for his idol Henry Rollins at the Sonic Temple Music Festival, performing at Comedy Central’s festival Clusterfest, and being named as a prestigious Just For Laughs Comedy Festival “New Face”.
