Join us for a free comedy show with local author, comedian, and horse vet, Matt Evans followed by a book signing at Lioness Books on Friday, October 16th at 6:00pm!

Matt Evans, DVM is an equine veterinarian who graduated from Texas A&M University and now practices outside of Austin, Texas. In addition to being a horse doctor, Matt is a stand-up comedian and you can catch him at shows all around Austin and beyond. He is married to his wife of over twenty-five years (!) and they have two daughters. All of them are better than Matt deserves. Matt also paints oil landscapes and horse portraits, but he is a way better writer and comic than a painter, so check out the book or catch a show before you look into his art.

Chomping at the Bit follows Matt into and out of veterinary school and through his first job as an equine veterinarian. With the amusing acuity of David Sedaris, he faces every new challenge with humility and humor. We meet memorable horses, clients he loves, clients he wishes he could forget, and a cast of colleagues both supportive and—shall we say, less so—as Matt struggles to find his way in the dream job that he is uniquely unqualified for.

Lioness Books will have copies available for purchase at the event and beer by 5th Element Brewing!
