NEW YORK, July 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Comedian Matt Braunger comes to COMEDY
CENTRAL Records with his new full length, digital-only album, "Soak Up the
Night," released on July 14.

Braunger is one of the brightest and most original comedians to hit the scene.

bathroom graffiti, or his intense fear of owls, his debut album, recorded live
February 2009 at The Hollywood Improv in Los Angeles, is a perfect medley of
Braunger's unique insights.

theatre in New York and improvisation in Chicago under such luminaries as
Susan Messing and Del Close. Braunger was a founding member of the seminal
improv group, "The Seaning" and it was in Chicago that Braunger became a
full-fledged stand-up comedian as well, performing in both the 2001 and 2002

Brigade Theatre in Los Angeles and a new series regular on "MADtv." His
