Self-described as a “bald and bearded, metal-headed, hill hiking, dopamine dealing, loud sounding man”, Seattle-based comedian LUKE SEVEREID has made a name for himself around the globe, fusing comedy with a love for heavy metal music and unique insights on life and the world swirling around him.
Having made an impact doing stand-up on the 2025 edition of KNOTFEST AUSTRALIA, the funnyman today announces his return Down Under, announcing the aptly titled ‘HERE TO F#@K SPIDERS’ tour for September!
The tour will take SEVEREID to venues around the country, while also including a stop in Aotearoa, performing a show for fans in Auckland at the beginning of the run.

SEVEREID’s comedic style has been described as “aggressively absurd” and “idiotically insightful”; his material has fast grown an online audience of over half a million followers, with shows around the world bringing him notoriety and popularity in equal measure. Among his recent accomplishments, SEVEREID has recorded two comedy specials in Minneapolis, MN that are to be released exclusively through KNOTFEST – the first filmed stand up comedy specials to be hosted by the online media and culture platform.
With his tour of Australia and New Zealand adding to an impressive scorecard, SEVEREID is only continuing to cement his status as a comedy talent to pay attention to.
“I am VERY excited to return to Australia. I had a blast last year when I came out as part of Knotfest and I’m beyond stoked to be coming back. Aussie crowds are far and away some of the best crowds I’ve ever performed in front of. It’s like telling jokes to rooms full of my country’s cousins who get to say the C word with complete impunity and do so with gleeful grins.
Looking forward to seeing yall again this September!
Bring your spiders….”
LUKE SEVEREID
“Luke did speak at length during the show about loving the country, and I hope he comes back. A very funny dude, who had a lot of love from the Brisbane crowd, and comedy before an entire day of metal would normally feel out of place, but in this instance, it was a perfect tone setter.”
THE LIVEWIRE
“Luke Severeid has continued to build his success through his hard work, touring, and, obviously, his knack for making people laugh. His stage presence is energetic, and he pulls amazing facial expressions. He is definitely one to check out…”
