In a September 2019 interview with Central Track, Marc Rebillet was embarking on a new tour, not knowing that in six months a worldwide pandemic would shut down live performances throughout the globe. At that point, though, it was less than two years earlier that he'd been making a name for himself performing in a few Dallas clubs, where he'd been slowly but surely building up a local fan base. As Rebillet explained, everything changed when he decided to leave Dallas and return to New York City in order to "give myself the chance in a larger market." 

At first, he admitted, the gigs he was getting were largely "one-offs," and he felt himself "kind of panicking for ... a while there" when it became clear he "was not on solid footing." Then, Rebillet revealed, in September 2018 he felt his entire situation turn around "very, very quickly" when the online performing he'd been doing "just took off in this very aggressive way. Like, people around the world just started sharing my stuff on Facebook primarily, and my audience on Facebook went from 7,000 or 10,000 followers to, within a week or two, 50,000. Then it was 100,000. And it just kept climbing!"  

Accompanying all that online attention were international requests to perform in various parts of the world, something the musician-comedian admitted he "really had no clue how to deal with or what to do with." Ultimately, Rebillet hooked up with a booking agency that "sort of helped corral all of those requests into ... my first sort of tour."
