About Me

BLACK DAISY is a Seattle based comedy duo. They are Troy Nelson and Cody Hurd. The new DVD titled Black Daisy: The Hardy Har Har Collection, has already gained much attention thanks to a successful screening at Troma Dance 2008, articles in The Seattle Times and The Stranger, and an amazing DVD release show at The Chop Suey with the screening of the new Patton Oswalt CD/DVD, out on Sub Pop Records. . Their video called "Test Pattern" will be making it's national television debut on the CW for the TV show "Online Nation" on September 23rd. They have performed and/or screened their videos at venues such as The Central Cinema, The Chop Suey, Rendezvous Theater, and The Capitol Hill Arts Center. They have been part of the Seattle True Independent Film Festival, Peoples Republic of Komedy and the weekly Laff Hole comedy shows, the What the Hell Did I Just Watch film festival, and Comedy Night. They have recieved the runner up twice for The Stranger's 28 Second Short Film contest. They directed their first music video for the band Brent Amaker and The Rodeo, and has traveled with the NXNE Festival in Canada and the Western US. They have also finished music videos for Seattle bands Head Like a Kite and Feral Children. For the new Black Daisy DVD, they wrote and recorded a "Rap Metal" song under the name Voltage Periscope, which was engineered and produced by their favorite Seattle producer, Erik Blood.
