The Nashville scene welcomed Dusty with open arms and at age 36, Slay became the youngest comedian at the time to ever perform on the legendary Grand Ole Opry stage. To date he’s logged dozens of appearances in front of “his people” on the historic stage in the last few years fully embedding himself in the country music scene and having been asked to host some of the biggest events across the subculture, including Hangover Fest at the ACMs in Las Vegas in 2022 and CMA Fest’s Forever Country Stage with the likes of Scotty McCreery, Dustin Lynch, Lainey Wilson and some of the most iconic names in the genre. It wasn’t long before his comedy caught the attention of The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon where he’s since performed 6 unforgettable late-night sets, firmly establishing himself as a crowd favorite and bona fide star on the silver screen. His breakout performances launched him into the Netflix family featuring as one of six comics in season 3 of The Stand Ups, highlighting the brightest new comedians at the top of their game in ½-hour stand-up comedy formats. Dusty made his solo Netflix debut January 2024 with his first one-hour special, WORKIN’ MAN, celebrating his many years as a “road dog” comic, and the material he’s honed and crafted, reflecting on his trailer park upbringing, the hilarious nuance of hourly shift work and the amusing idiosyncrasies of everyday life.
