Stand-up comedy

In Chicago, he was a co-founder and co-host of the Yeah Buddy Awesome Time Comedy Show, co-host of Best Night Ever, and a frequent performer at longrunning show and podcast We Still Like You; Best Night Ever producer Sam Ash McHale called him "one of the funniest comics in Chicago."

Albums

Losso's album and video A Careless Whisper of a Man was released July 16, 2021, on Stand Up! Records. It reached No. 2 on the iTunes comedy chart and No. 4 on Amazon's chart. Reviewer Richard Lanoie of The Serious Comedy Site called it "an entertaining and fun stand-up comedy album," noting that "Losso does biographical and anecdotal/observational comedy in a laid-back way."

Other work

Losso's work in comic books includes 2010's The Great Sandwich Detective, an all-ages Sherlock Holmes spoof he wrote and drew, and superhero thriller Kill The Wonderhawks, released in 2011 by Less Than Jake drummer Vinnie Fiorello's imprint Paper + Plastick, which Losso wrote and co-created with artist Aaron Pittman. His visual art has appeared in the touring art show Thirty Three Point Three and concert posters for bands and comedians including The Number 12 Looks Like You, Tig Notaro and The Sklar Brothers.

His comedic writing has been published in Savage Henry Magazine, Zaftig, and The Whiskey Journal.

In 2005, Losso was the vocalist for Chicago hardcore band Murder in E Minor. He credits the experience of touring in hardcore bands with preparing him for life as an indie road comic.
