Erik Knowles has a style all his own. He treats his audience members to a behind-the-curtain realness that feels as though he is speaking to a living room full of his own friends. His storytelling and effortless ability to cajole audiences into full belly laughs every 10 seconds draws comparisons to Christopher Titus and a clean version of George Carlin.

Jamal Doman has his own style of comedy, which he refers to as "sophisticated ghetto". Jamal says, "My comedy is much like my personality. I'm from the hood, but I have some sophistication to me." Called "a comedian's comedian" by his peers, Jamal is poised on the brink of stardom. Jamal may be rough around the edges, but he is genuine at the core, and the audience relates to him.

Tony B is professionally funny, whip-smart, and stylish. Day Drinker, his debut album, pokes your funny bone and tickles your fancy. It's easy to love his upbeat, good-natured sense of humor. When he jabs at the audience, Tony pulls his punches; his razzing is gentle, his sensibility is metered. Jokes are crisp, polished, and to the point. The energy from the Arizona-based comedian is playful and warm.

Hello. This is me. Joe Klocek. I guess I’ve always wanted to be a social commentary comic. Dick jokes and dating-is-weird stuff is great, but here, I’m going for something a little more laid back. Something more storytelling in its approach, rather than the standard angry white man ranting about something no one is really that upset at. Hopefully, you will enjoy it, too.

He is a must see any chance you get!

Ultimately landing in Los Angeles, he says he loves the sun and the beaches, but not the congestion. "It’s not even being in traffic in LA that ticks me off," he pines. "It’s the guy on the radio that tells you about the traffic you’re sitting in."

Spencer James' comedy career started very early on. At 11 years old, he was the fat kid always getting picked on by school bullies and being ignored by every girl around. An army brat who moved frequently throughout the US as well as internationally, he used stand-up to provide comic relief. His sharp tongue has entertained audiences from all over the country, ranging from small one-nighters to headlining clubs such as Snickers Comedy Club, Helium Comedy Club, Joker's Comedy Club, Lafflines, and Morty's Comedy Club, just to name a few.

In his punchy, fast-moving act, Brett Hamil can be dumb, angry, opinionated, or amazed, but he always tries to make comedy that generates maximum laughter and excludes no one.

The Seattle Weekly said, "Hamil stands as the city's premiere political comic". The Stranger called him "a truly treasured ham".

After winning the Seattle International Comedy Competition in 2012, Michael Malone embarked on his Even Fish Have Fathers cross-country comedy tour with one goal in mind: a new, very personal hour of material.

He used the tour to explore the animated characters that raised him following the death of his father when he was 12 years old.

Clean, intelligent comedy. "I'm a monologist," says Andrew Norelli. "A monologist tells their thoughts and opinions on their life and the world around them."
