Description
FINALIST IN AMERICA'S TWO MOST PRESTIGIOUS COMEDY COMPETITIONS: SAN FRANCISCO INTERNATIONAL COMEDY COMPETITION 2008 AND SEATTLE INTERNATIONAL COMEDY COMPETITION 2007!
Leif's crowd pleasing interactive style, mastery of characters, and musical comedy is an entertainment package that makes any special event that much more memorable! Born in Sweden, raised in L.A., Leif began comedy 20 years ago at the world famous Comedy Store in Hollywood CA, and has shared the stage with such great acts as Weird Al Yankovic, Howie Mandel, Paul Rodriquez, Steve Alan, and Jimmy "JJ" Walker among others. Leif has appeared on The Comedy Network's Comedy at Club 54 and Comedy Kitchen, Last Comic Standing, ABC's Three's Company and General Hospital. Leif can be heard regularly on XM satellite radio. Major casino appearances include the Riviera and Bally's in Las Vegas and Trump Plaza in Atlantic City. Leif's corporate clients include: Coca Cola, ARCO Oil, BP Oil, Pioneer Newspapers, Idaho State Police, ISBA, Idaho Association of Counties, and Teton Wireless Television. Leif Skyving has been clean and sober for 24 years and is a hit at N.A. and A.A. conventions with his specialized act and message of hope for those occasions.
Perhaps Eddie Brill, talent coordinator for the comedians on "The Late Show With David Letterman" said it best:
"Leif Skyving is a very funny comic. A consummate pro and a lot of fun to watch onstage."

Feedback
- Leif was absolutely the best, from communication prior to the event (kept in touch, kept us informed), being on time, being flexible and being accomodating. HIs humor was awesome and kept the crowd laughing the entire time. After the event he was willing to spend time talking and laughing with the crowd.
He was such a hit that the crowd cornered the promoter immediately after the show demanding that Leif be brought back for another show.
A must book event in my opinion. -- Gerald C, Lacrosse, WA, 5/22/2010
- Leif was very funny and the perfect comedian for our all ages, family friendly event. I would hire him again in an instant for any other events of this type that I am involved in. -- Joel H, Mccall, ID, 10/30/2010
- Leif did a fabulous job. He was able to read the crowd, entertained to all audiences and kept people laughing and enjoying themselves the entire show. He was great to work with prior to the event and kept me in the loop and organized throughout. I would certainly recommend him for any event!! -- Tanna R Z, Orofino, ID, 3/11/2011
