Шаблон:Cleanup bare URLs Шаблон:Infobox comedian God's Pottery is a New York City faux-Christian[1] acoustic music and comedy duo. Its members are Wilson Hall (as "Jeremiah Smallchild") and Krister Johnson (as "Gideon Lamb"). They are both from New York City.[2]

Background

The duo often would just mess around and make up fake bands.[3] While Hall was on vacation he came up with a Christian band idea and wrote some funny song titles.[3] Before they knew it they were writing lyrics and began performing in rooms in downtown NYC.[3]

Career

Initially the idea was to goof around, but quickly comedians like Eugene Mirman and the Upright Citizens Brigade invited the duo to perform on their shows.[3]

They made the act into an hour long show and traveled to Edinburgh Festival Fringe and signed with Mirman's manager.[3] Шаблон:Quote frame

God's Pottery appeared on the sixth season of the NBC reality show Last Comic Standing. They were selected as semi-finalists in the New York City audition, then selected as finalists after a performance in Las Vegas, Nevada. They were eliminated along with Esther Ku in the first head-to-head elimination round on Episode 7, finishing in 12th place.[3]

The duo released an EP from Comedy Central Records entitled Live at Comix in December 2007.

They also wrote the book What Would God's Pottery Do.
