The digital album also will be available on that date on iTunes, Amazon MP3, Google Play, Spotify and all streaming services.

The road to success has been a steady climb for Swardson, who started his career in St. Paul and Minneapolis, then on to New York and Los Angeles, where he first found success by writing "Malibu's Most Wanted" for Warner Brothers and as a cast member on the hit Comedy Central series "RENO 911!" After catching the attention of Happy Madison Productions, he quickly became a fixture in the company, writing or co-writing and producing such projects as "Grandma's Boy" and "Benchwarmers," and co-producing "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry" with Adam Sandler and Kevin James. More recently Swardson has performed in movies such as "That's My Boy," "Blades of Glory," "30 Minutes or Less," and "Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star," which he wrote, starred in, and produced. His first CD/DVD, "Party," on Comedy Central Records (produced by Happy Madison) went platinum. He followed that up in 2010 with his first one-hour stand-up special on Comedy Central, "Seriously Who Farted?"

In addition to his career in film and in the world of stand-up comedy, Swardson continues to have a prolific career in television. His Comedy Central sketch show, "Nick Swardson's Pretend Time" ran from 2010 to 2012, and this past year he voiced the role of "Troy" on FXX's animated show, "Chozen."

Swardson recently shot the feature film, "Pixels" from Columbia Films, starring Adam Sandler and Josh Gad. He's currently shooting his next feature "The Ridiculous Six," starring Adam Sandler and Will Forte, for Netflix.
