Artist Bio:
Cheech & Chong is a comedy duo consisting of Richard "Cheech" Marin and Tommy Chong, known for their stand-up routines, comedy albums, and films. They rose to fame in the 1970s and 1980s for their counterculture humor that often focused on drug culture and the hippie movement. Cheech, of Mexican descent, played the role of a stereotypical Mexican American, while Chong, of Chinese descent, portrayed a hippie character.
The duo released several successful comedy albums, including "Cheech and Chong" and "Big Bambu," which featured classic sketches like "Dave's not here" and "Sister Mary Elephant." They also starred in a series of popular films, such as "Up in Smoke" and "Nice Dreams." Cheech & Chong's humor was controversial at the time for its drug references and irreverent style, but they became iconic figures in the comedy world and left a lasting impact on popular culture.
