Bucky Lewis is an extremely talented man. He is hilarious, I have seen The Bucky Lewis Show twice, after the second time, I finally said to myself "I need to book a show with Bucky". I had booked Bucky for a fundraiser to be held at my Rod & Gun Club on January 20, 2018, and well lets just say it was a huge success. The people that attended the show thought he was awesome and cannot wait until I book him again. I had received an abundance of phone calls and texts on how great he was and where will his next show be and when will I be booking him again. I would highly recommend Bucky Lewis and look forward to working with him again.
Thank you for such a great show. Joe T.
We hired Bucky to perform at our holiday party in Boston, MA. He was Fantastic! He customized a show to suit our audience, and he had the audience laughing so hard we were crying, and the music was also great. We loved that he does bits that involve the audience. One of the best comedic acts we have ever seen.
Bucky Lewis was our entertainment at our Company Winter Celebration. I continue to receive compliments on him and his show. All 250 employees were laughing out loud, some with tears rolling down their cheeks! Bucky knows how to interact with his audience and make the evening a lasting memory for all. His humor was perfect for our Corp. Party! It felt wonderful to see everyone have such a great time.
The entire evening was full of fun and laughter. We raise money to help one of our members and everyone enjoyed a great meal, great raffle prizes, and super entertainment. Thanks Bucky. Dave
Bucky entertained our audience from the minute his show began. His genius inter-action with the audience and witty, hysterical bits and humor were beyond entertaining. We had tears in our eyes and laughed so hard my stomach hurt. I have thrown many a Christmas Parties, and by far this was the best, and for one reason only, BUCKY LEWIS! Thanks' again Bucky!!!
Bucky Lewis provided entertainment for us at a gathering of maple producers. He provided us the BEST entertainment ever! Great Comedy, great Music just a terrific show that everyone was talking about the next day and still commenting how it made the weekend. It was great for adult and family viewing. Keep it up Bucky we love you!
We, The Saranac vol fire dept in upstate NY had Bucky Lewis do his comedy show for our fundraiser oh what a gut busting time the whole room endured for almost 3 hours. Bucky Lewis was the best by far and the funnist show we have ever seen Thanks Bucky..
We saw Buckys show up north a few years a go, laughed hard and long! He explained how he helps out with fundraisers for different situations. We lost a dear friend suddenly and the widow was in need of some help. I thought of Buckys show! We talked and put things together and the show was a great success as a fundraiser AND spirit raiser. We all needed it!
We have had the pleasure to host Bucky three times over the past five years at our Yacht Club for both social and fundrasing events. Each performance was as memorable and entertaining as the first. His ablitiy to connect with his audience at various "levels" of comedy is someting to watch. There is no better medicine in life than laughter and after a dose of Bucky Lewis you let go of those day to day stresses and feel exhilerated ... absolutely one of the best in the business !!!
Have attended several shows and we laugh just as much and hard as the first one!! Your stomach will hurt, and it will hard to catch your breath! Audience participation. The only negative comment I would have is the show is over before you realize it. Highly recommend.
Having seen Bucky at numerous charity events over the years and knowing his versatility, I suggested him to a parents group organizing a high school chem free graduation party. His 90 minute performance was to about 100 guests. The show was a huge hit for both the students and the parents. Bucky's creative improvisation and interaction with his guests, both comically and musically, will make whatever event he does a success.
Whether he's slinging one liners, spinning a comedic yarn, interacting on stage with participants from the audience, or playing outrageous (and sometimes touching) songs on his trusty guitar, Bucky Lewis knows how to make you laugh so hard you will cry. He's a multi-talented professional who can tailor his show to fit your special circumstances and will keep you entertained time and again. In addition, Bucky is an able motivational speaker for groups of all ages and interests. I've had him perform numerous times at our family of resorts over the past 20 years and have always received accolades from our client groups and leisure guests. And, with Bucky you're getting a full night's entertainment of comedy and music ... not just a half hour comic routine.
The Bucky Lewis Show was an amazing way to culminate our two day event and reward our members with top notch entertainment. He engaged the audience and kept everyone entertained for the whole show. Bucky made my job as Events Director easy!
I have been going to Bucky's shows for probably 13 years now.... if you have a sense of humor and love to laugh... ya gotta see this guy!! Hey, I even consider he and his lovely wife, Tyra, friends! LOL. After seeing one show, you will become addicted..... just a fact. Live, Laugh and Love.... from a devoted fan.......;)
As a committee member charged with coordinating social events for our organization, we hired Bucky Lewis knowing that he has area roots. He did not disappoint us. It was a great night to let our hair down and let it all hang out.
Response from Bucky Lewis Show:
Thank you Mike.. It was pleasure to work with you and Dana ... and More recently in Nashua for the Benson Park Fundraiser last fall.. Laughter is a great gift.. we were happy to have shared that with you and your supporters.
I had heard about the Bucky Lewis show from a family member who travels all over Maine, New Hampshire, and Mass to see his shows. Bucky Lewis is absolutely one of the funniest Adult Humorists I have ever seen, He is also a very talented musician, which he includes in his shows. I went to a fundraiser show Bucky did in my town for our local fire department. His show was worth every penny. The theater was packed with people and everyone in the room was laughing for hours on end. If you ever hear that Bucky Lewis is coming nearby to your town. Get your tickets fast before they sell out. This comedian brings a "Local Flavor" of your Town and State into his jokes. He draws his audience into the show and has people up on stage as part of the act. I literally did not stop laughing the entire time I was in the audience. If you want to show people a good time for your non-profit organization, or if you own a theater and want to pack it with customers. Bucky Lewis will provide you with an outstanding show.
I have hired Bucky multiple times to entertain my corporate clients and prospects. His is show is unique in both entertaining people and getting them to laugh. It is amazing to see peope laughing so hard while at the same time relaxing. Is their a better result for a business function?
Even though we have seen Bucky several times, we are still laughing to the end of the show. You never know what he is going to do or say; he keeps your attention - to say the least!! Well worth the travel to see him. You will not be disappointed.

I hired Bucky for my husbands 40th Bday party in October 2006. We invited 100 close friends to the party and everyone left doubled over with stomach pain from laughing so hard. Our party was the talk of the town the next day! Bucky and Tyra are very professional, honest and wonderful people. We have seen them several times at fund raisers and Bucky always tops his previous performances. His performance never gets old. You won't be disappointed!!
The Ludlow Police Department held a "Comedy Night" Fundraiser to raise money for our scholarships. Bucky Lewis did a great job with the entire night. The entire crowd was roaring with laughter the entire night and there was not a dry eye in the house from laughing so hard. Bucky Lewis is truley a One Man Show. I guarantee anyone and everyone will love and enjoy this show. We are definitly booking him to come back next year!!
Not only is Bucky a GREAT COMEDIAN....he is extremely talented. It is much more than stand up comedy, this is true entertainment at it's best. I have seen Bucky over 15 times and it gets better every time. Bucky and Tyra are a class production. You will not be sorry for booking this comedy show.
Over the past 20 years, I have used Bucky for both company & personal events......always a fun & successful time. He is a wonderful human being & a real talent in the field of comedy and entertainment. Hold onto your seats and go for the ride of your life with Bucky's show!
Bucky Lewis Entertainment helped us to our best fundraising effort ever. They were patient and understanding and their industry knowledge stiffened our spine when needed and made the event a success. Oh and by the way...the show was a riot. Absolutely fantastic!

Original Biography: Written By Laurie Ferris for the Mountain Ear, (link hidden)nway, NH
Bucky Lewis is well-known throughout New England for his zany, off the wall, versatile and over the top musical comedy shows. But behind all of the laughter, Bucky Lewis is a
man on a serious mission to raise money and awareness for charitable organizations as well as making people laugh.
Bucky was born Arthur Lewis III in LA – this is what he affectionately calls Laconia, NH.
Lewis has taken the road less traveled throughout his career and has earned money
as a writer, actor, television host, lead singer and guitar player in a rock band,
motivational speaker and now currently as a one man musical comedy show.
When Bucky was a young child, his father taught him and his two younger
brothers, Tim and John, how to play stringed instruments, including the ukulele,
mandolin and guitar. The three brothers then formed the Cousins band with the
members of two other families from his father's side and started to appear — and
win — on talent shows such as the Talent Spotlight on Channel 8 in Poland Springs,
Maine, Community Auditions in Boston and the Ted Mack Amateur Hour.
Known for their impeccable harmonies and squeaky clean images, the Cousins
band was signed by a talent agency out of Boston. Soon they were working with
people like Frankie Fontaine of the Jackie Gleason Show, a popular singer
and comedian. Modeled after groups such as the Osmonds and the Cowsills,
the band started to travel throughout New England, playing at classic hotel
resorts such as the Balsams, Sunset Hill.

"I learned a lot about the dynamics of entertainment through working as a young boy with all of these vaudeville people. We were young, clean-cut kids playing songs for the older generation, old Americana songs. We were popular at Masonic Temples, conferences and at one point we even played for President Ronald Reagan at the Manchester Armory," recalled Lewis. When Bucky was 14 years old, he and his family's lives would change again forever. Bucky remembers awaking one night to find his mother Grace had been stricken with a monumental initial episode of Multiple Sclerosis. It was a very serious medical situation in which his mother had to be hospitalized.
Grace's multiple sclerosis got progressively worse over the years, eventually causing his father to quit his job to take care of her. "My father was really dedicated to my
mother and took care of her for years," said Lewis. "Both of my parents used self-deprecating humor and laughter to cope with life's challenges. I was particularly struck by how my mother deflected her pain and discomfort using her humor and wit to put others at ease and to make them laugh and feel good around her." After high school, The Cousins split up and Bucky went on to attend Berklee
College of Music in Boston. He then formed and had regional success with The
Lewis Brothers Show band with Tim and John, and played with that band well into
the mid-'80s. Much of Bucky's backwoods humor was developed during those years
as the band played in small rural towns and venues throughout northern Maine.
Bucky's first love had always been music, and for years he toured New England as a
solo performer. Lewis began utilizing comedy naturally in the '80s while
working on the Cape during Happy Hours at the Mill Hill Club and Pufferbellies. He discovered that audience members responded with laughter every time he would launch into accents and characters from rural New Hampshire. Soon he discovered a special niche that combined music and comedy. "I quickly realized that the dynamics created by combining music and comedy were both unique and powerful. I'm still learning each day to harness the power of laughter," said Lewis.
"Each show and each crowd is different. It's always fun. The future is bright" - Bucky Lewis.
