About Mae Martin

Mae Martin is a Canadian comedian and musician who makes songs that sit somewhere between observational comedy and genuinely affecting indie rock. They're probably best known for comedy—Netflix specials, the TV show Feel Good, that kind of thing—but the music is less of a side project and more of an extension of the same brain. Their songs tend toward the honest and slightly self-deprecating, whether they're joking about coffee culture or actually getting at something real about anxiety and identity. If you've heard "Bullshit" or "Are You a Cow?" you know they're not above absurdism, but there's usually something sincere underneath. They write in a conversational way that makes you feel like they're thinking through something in real time. The songs work whether you care about their comedy or not—they're just tight, weird little indie tracks with good hooks.

Mae's shows feel less like concert and more like extended hangout with someone who's really good at noticing things. Crowd is mixed comedy fans and actual music people. They don't do much banter between songs but the songs themselves do the talking. Low energy isn't the same as low engagement—people actually listen.

Known for Bullshit, Are You a Cow?, Flat White, The Cure for Loneliness, Good Kid

Live Music in Nashville

Nashville's comedy scene exists in the shadow of its music legacy, which creates an interesting dynamic. The city's known for its openness to genre-blending and storytelling, which aligns with Mae Martin's approach—they're a comedian who uses personal narrative like a songwriter uses melody. Nashville's audiences tend to appreciate that kind of craft and honesty, even when it's coming from a comedy stage rather than the Grand Ole Opry.

Nashville road trip to see Mae Martin?

Stay in East Nashville, where the old theaters and independent venues give the area real character without the Broadway chaos. Dinner at Attaboy or The Stillery—places with actual craft to their food. Spend a day exploring The Ryman Auditorium if you haven't; it's impossible to ignore the gravity of that room. Walk through the honky-tonks on Broadway if you want context for what Shepherd's blues means in this particular music town. The Parthenon is worth an hour if you need something completely different from the music scene.
