Ben Lerman is a big guy with a little ukulele. But does size matter? Time Out Chicago wrote, Tiny instrument, big balls Ben Lerman is so damn funny. His career is swelling too fast to hide it. Ben has headlined two solo tours and made his TV debut on Here TV in April. He entertains listeners regularly on Sirius Satellite Radio and has a growing international following with regular appearances on two of the biggest podcasts in the world, Keith and the Girl (www.KATG.com) and Feast of Fun (www.feastoffun.com). This summer, Lerman is taking his new solo show from NYC to Chicago and headlining engagements at the Art House Theater in Provincetown and the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

In Size Matters, Lerman will preview some of his Edinburgh Fringe Festival show, singing funny, satirical songs about love, loss, pirates, American Idols, chubby chasers, online dating, and more. Ben is gay, but not nearly as gay as American Idol. His show will not attract screaming little girls, but intelligent, laughing grown-ups will enjoy every song.
