    Fereydun Robert Armisen (born December 4, 1966) is an American comedian, actor, musician, writer, and producer. With his comedy partner Carrie Brownstein, he co-created and co-starred in the IFC sketch comedy series Portlandia. He also co-created and starred in the mockumentary IFC series Documentary Now! and the Showtime comedy series Moonbase 8.

    Armisen is the bandleader and frequent drummer for the Late Night with Seth Meyers house band, The 8G Band. He is known for being a cast member on the late-night sketch comedy and variety series Saturday Night Live from 2002 to 2013. He also voiced Speedy Gonzales on The Looney Tunes Show.

    Armisen has acted in comedy films, including EuroTrip, Melvin Goes to Dinner, The Ex, and The Dictator. He is also notable for his guest-starring appearances in television shows such as 30 Rock, Parks and Recreation, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, New Girl, Broad City, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Difficult People, The Last Man on Earth, Toast of London, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Modern Family, and Barry.

    Armisen received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Comedy Album for Standup for Drummers in 2019. He has also won two Peabody Awards, one in 2008 as part of the Saturday Night Live political satire cast[2] and one in 2011 for Portlandia.[3] From 2019 to 2022, he co-starred and served as writer and executive producer on the Spanish-language series Los Espookys, which he co-created.

    Early life

    Fereydun Robert Armisen was born in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, on December 4, 1966, the son of schoolteacher Hildegardt Mirabal Level and IBM employee Fereydun Herbert Armisen.[4] He moved with his family to New York as a baby,[5] and briefly lived in Brazil in his youth. He was raised in Valley Stream, New York,[5] where he was a classmate of fellow SNL alumnus Jim Breuer.[6] Armisen attended the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan[7] before dropping out to begin a career as a rock drummer.[5] He said that he was inspired to perform after seeing The Clash and Devo perform on television, and wanted to be a performer since he was a child.[8]

    Armisen's mother was Venezuelan, born in San Fernando de Apure,[9][10][11] while his father was born in Soltau to a German mother and South Korean father.[11][12] For much of his life, Armisen thought his paternal grandfather Ehara Masami was Japanese; however, Masami (better known by his professional name Masami Kuni or birth name Park Yeong-in)[11][13] was actually South Korean and came from Ulsan. He adopted a Japanese name and persona after the massacre of Koreans in 1923 when he was a high school student.[14][11] Park studied aesthetics at Tokyo Imperial University and became a professional dancer before moving to Germany.[15][13] After the war, he returned to Japan, and formed a premier modern dance company. He eventually emigrated to the US, where he taught dance at what is now Cal State Fullerton from 1964 to 1975.[13][12] Park Yeong-in's family were members of the Korean aristocracy, and Armisen's Korean lineage can be verifiably traced back to the 1600s.[12]

    Career

    Music

    In 1984, Armisen played drums in a local band along with his high school friends in Valley Stream, New York, but the group soon ended. In 1988, he moved to Chicago to play drums for the punk rock band Trenchmouth,[16] and in the 1990s he played background drums with Blue Man Group.

    Armisen played drums on three tracks for Les Savy Fav's 2007 album Let's Stay Friends,[17] as well as tracks for Matthew Sweet's 2011 album Modern Art[18] and Wandering Lucy's 1996[19] album Leap Year.[18]

    Armisen is the music director and frequent drummer[20] of the 8G Band, the house band for Late Night with Seth Meyers, since February 24, 2014.[21]

    In 2018, Armisen played drums as part of Devo at John Waters' Burger Boogaloo festival in Oakland, California.[22][23]

    In July 2021, he performed at the Newport Folk Festival in Rhode Island.[24]

    Television and film

    While not playing with the band Trenchmouth, Armisen's interests switched to acting. In a January 2006 interview, he said, "I wanted to be on TV somehow. For some reason, I always thought it would be an indirect route; I didn't know that it would be comedy and Saturday Night Live. I just wanted to do something with performing that would lead me there."[25]

    Armisen's subsequent television work, such as some "memorable Andy Kaufman–esque appearances"[26] on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, as well as work for Crank Yankers and Adult Swim, led to a role in 2002 as a featured player in the cast of Saturday Night Live.[26] In the 2004 season, he was promoted to repertory cast member.

    Armisen has landed several minor yet memorable roles that were defined by an interviewer as "feral foreigners"[27] in comedy films such as Eurotrip, Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Deck the Halls, The Ex, The Promotion, The Rocker, Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny, and Confessions of a Shopaholic.

    Further television work included an appearance on Parks and Recreation in the 2009 episode "Sister City".[28] For the Cartoon Network series The Looney Tunes Show (2011–2014), Armisen voices Speedy Gonzales. He and fellow Saturday Night Live alums Bill Hader and Seth Meyers write, produce, and star in the IFC mockumentary series Documentary Now![29] which premiered in 2015.

    Armisen starred in the IFC sketch series Portlandia alongside Carrie Brownstein (of Sleater-Kinney); the first season debuted on January 21, 2011.[30] With Brownstein, he appeared on the 2012 Simpsons episode "The Day the Earth Stood Cool", in which they play the Simpsons' new neighbors, who encourage everyone to be cool like them.[31][32]

    Since 2014, Armisen has been music director and sometimes bandleader and drummer on Late Night with Seth Meyers, for which he received positive reviews for his deadpan comedy and especially for his interplay with the host.[33]

    For his work on Portlandia, Armisen was nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series in 2012, 2013, and 2014[34] and for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series in 2014.

    In 2021, Armisen was executive producer on the documentary Charm Circle, directed by Nira Burstein.[35]

    In 2022, he appeared in Wednesday (TV series) as Uncle Fester.[36]

    Saturday Night Live

    Armisen joined the cast of Saturday Night Live in 2002.[37] He was promoted to a repertory player in 2004. After 11 years as a cast member, he decided to leave the show. At the time of his 2013 departure from the show,[38][39] Armisen was the third-longest-tenured cast member (behind Seth Meyers and Darrell Hammond), and he appeared in the second-highest number of sketches (856) of any cast member. Since then, Armisen has come back for multiple cameo appearances on the show, including when he hosted the season 41 finale on May 21, 2016, with musical guest Courtney Barnett.

    The following is a partial list of notable roles Armisen has played in Saturday Night Live sketches.

    Recurring characters

    • Billy Smith – a Native American stand-up comedian who tells Native-American-themed jokes that no one understands.
    • Fericito – a Venezuelan nightclub comedian who has his own TV show, Show Biz Grande Explosion with sidekick Manuel (Horatio Sanz).
    • Gunther Kelly – a student at George Washington University who performs songs on Weekend Update with his brother Patrick (played by Will Forte).
    • Leonard – the strange European host of the foreign music show Club Traxx.
    • Mackey – a senile drummer who often does rimshots at inappropriate moments and appears in the "Rialto Grande" sketches.
    • Nooni Schoener – a quirky, foreign art dealer who appears with his wife Nuni Schoener (played by Maya Rudolph) in "the Schoeners" sketches.
    • Frondi – a mentally challenged character who criticizes Ben Affleck's movie Gigli to Ben himself.
    • Manuel Ortiz – host of The Manuel Ortiz show on Television Dominicana where he "helps with whatever it is" his audience members are going through.
    • Nicholas Fehn – a political commentator whose mind wanders so much that he is incapable of finishing a sentence without starting a new one.
    • Roger A. Trevanti – a greedy studio head and AMPTP member who rails against the 2007–08 Writers Guild of America strike. The character's only SNL appearance was on the last episode of season 33, before the show went on hiatus for the WGA strike, but he appeared in several Internet videos around the same time.
    • Rodger Brush – a producer of multiple "Dr. Phil"-type talk shows, each focused on a different topic (teen, marital, sexual, and pregnancy issues), who fills in when the hosts are sick. He repeatedly tells guests relating their problems to speak up, and, unable to relate to their problems, offers them either useless advice based on his experience or no help at all.

    • Giuseppe – the saxophone player for What's Up With That?

    • Regine – a pretentious and condescending woman who exhibits blatant euphoric and erotic facial expressions when touched on certain parts of her body.
    • Ian Rubbish – A late-1970s/early-80s British punk rocker, a parody of Sex Pistols' John Lydon, who caught heat from his bandmates Derek Gash (played by Bill Hader) and Keith Grimshaw (played by Taran Killam) and fans for writing and performing songs supporting Conservative Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.

    Celebrity impressions

    Armisen's list of notable impressions has included:

    • Barack Obama – recurring in Season 33 and Season 34 episodes as the Democratic presidential candidate (Season 33), the Democratic nominee, President-elect, and President (Season 34), beginning on February 23, 2008. As of season 38, Jay Pharoah replaced Armisen as Obama.
    • Prince – parody of the musician as the host of a talk show called The Prince Show, with Beyoncé Knowles (played by Maya Rudolph) as his co-host. Armisen, a fan of Prince since childhood, created the sketch as a way of improving his chances of meeting the musician.[25]
    • Steve Jobs – Apple CEO who appears on Weekend Update to show off strange new technology. Armisen has stated that Steve Jobs is the celebrity he most enjoys portraying.[40]

    Other work

    In 1998, he posed as a music journalist for the short film Fred Armisen's Guide to Music and South by Southwest. It was filmed by then-girlfriend Sally Timms and featured Armisen's "pranking musicians and industry types" during the South by Southwest festival in Austin, Texas.[42] In various segments he asked self-described "stupid" questions, pretended to be German, and also acted blind.[43] A year later, Armisen starred with alternative rock legend Steve Albini in Chevelle's Point No. 1 EPK.

    Armisen is part of ThunderAnt, a comedy duo with Sleater-Kinney guitarist Carrie Brownstein. The duo specializes in creating comedic short skits often about independent vocations such as one-man shows, feminist bookstores, and bicycle rights activists. Armisen founded ThunderAnt.com, a website that features the comedy sketches created with Brownstein.

    Armisen has directed music videos for bands like The Helio Sequence. Armisen also had a role in the Wilco documentary I Am Trying to Break Your Heart, which featured footage from his stint opening for front man Jeff Tweedy's 2001 solo tour. He also appeared in video segments on Blue Man Group's How to be a Megastar Tour 2.0. Armisen occasionally writes for Pitchfork Media and interviewed Cat Power for that company.[44] He appeared as Jens Hannemann on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on October 19, 2007, promoting a 28-minute DVD called Fred Armisen presents Jens Hannemann: "COMPLICATED DRUMMING TECHNIQUE".[45] In 2010, Armisen briefly joined Joanna Newsom's tour for her album Have One on Me as his character Jens Hannemann.[46] On SNL, Armisen often plays musical instruments in sketches, has two recurring characters who are musicians (Mackey the drummer from the Rialto Grande and Ferecito from Showbiz Grande Explosion), or impersonates famous figures in the music world such as Liberace, Phil Spector, Lou Reed, and Prince.

    Armisen appeared in the official music video for Man Man's song "Rabbit Habits", playing a man who charms his blind date (Charlyne Yi) but runs away after she turns into a werewolf.[47]

    Along with Bill Hader and Jason Sudeikis, Armisen voiced radio characters in the video game Grand Theft Auto IV. Armisen would also continue to appear in other titles from Rockstar Games, such as a pharmacist in Red Dead Redemption, Grand Theft Auto V as a judge on an in-game reality TV show, strongly parodying Simon Cowell, and Red Dead Redemption 2 as a host at an in-game theatre you can attend.

    Armisen performed as a singer/drummer/comedic actor in the Blue Man Group's "How to be a Megastar Live!". He played the part of a salesman on TV who advertises for the Megastar Rock Manual. He also drummed in the performance and was a backup singer.

    In late 2014, Armisen was featured on the popular comedy web series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee with host Jerry Seinfeld.

    Armisen is a longtime fan of punk rock music and can be seen in the documentaries Salad Days and The Damned: Don't You Wish That We Were Dead.

    In 2015, Armisen was the recipient of Smithsonian magazine's American Ingenuity Award for Performing Arts.[50]

    In 2018, Armisen provided the foreword to The Yacht Rock Book by author Greg Prato.[51]

    Armisen appears as Michael on the sixth episode of the revival of The Kids in the Hall, released on May 13, 2022.[52]

    Personal life

    Armisen was married to English musician Sally Timms from 1998 to 2004,[53] and English-American actress Elisabeth Moss from 2009 to 2011.[54][55] In 2014, Moss described their time together as "extremely traumatic, awful and horrible" and said of Armisen, "He's so great at doing impersonations. But the greatest impersonation he does is that of a normal person."[56] During a later interview with Howard Stern, Armisen said, "I think I was a terrible husband. I think I'm a terrible boyfriend. [...] I feel bad for everyone I've gone out with."[56]

    Armisen started dating actress Natasha Lyonne in 2014.[57][58] Lyonne confirmed that they had ended their relationship in April 2022: "We love each other just about as much as two people can love each other and we're still talking all the time."[59] Armisen began dating comedian Riki Lindhome later that year, and they purchased a home together in Los Feliz.[60]

    Since working together on ThunderAnt, Armisen and Carrie Brownstein developed what Brownstein has called "one of the most intimate, functional, romantic, but nonsexual relationships [they have] ever had".[61] According to Armisen, their relationship is "all of the things that I’ve ever wanted, you know, aside from like the physical stuff, but the intimacy that I have with her is like no other".[62]

    As of 2022, his current partner is Riki Lindhome.[1]

    Armisen is a fan of the Red Dead video game franchise,[63] and voiced characters in Red Dead Redemption and Red Dead Redemption 2.[64] He is also a fan of black metal and death metal.[65]
