He works endlessly with charity fundraisers, speaking to youth and inmates while touring the country with his unique, perfect combination of edgy contemporary comedy.

Phil Johnson

Phil has an action-packed show filled with his two loves, action packed comedy and music. He’s a master of zany intelligence providing a show with sharp unexpected turns, sneak attack jokes, and hilarious songs, all delivered from the viewpoint of a guy who happily grew up in the deeply multi-everything community of the San Francisco Bay Area. Phil has performed at the Sundance Film Festival, Edinburgh Festival, on Sirius/XM, Bob and Tom Radio, and on Amazon Prime. He’s also released multiple comedy specials and albums filled with his colorful, tightly written comedy.

Al Ducharme

Al performs at all major nightclubs in NY including The Comic Strip, Gotham Comedy Club & Rodney Dangerfield’s. Named “one of my favorite comedians” by Heidi Klum and “very funny” by Simon Cowell, Al is in a league of his own. He’s on Netflix in “F is for Family” w/Bill Burr, has Apple, Merrill Lynch, etc. as clients and has received rave reviews throughout Europe playing Amsterdam, Paris, Barcelona plus Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Africa and China. His first Comedy DVD, “Spineless and Loving it”, available in stores, was produced by National Lampoon and his popular CD “Manchild” is available on iTunes.

Kellen Erskine

Kellen has graced major shows w/Conan, Comedy Central, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, NBC’s America’s Got Talent and the Amazon Original Series Inside Jokes. In 2018 he was selected to perform on the coveted “New Faces” showcase at the Just For Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal--comedy's most prestigious event. He has over 100 million viewers on Dry Bar and was named one of the Top Ten Comics to Watch in 2017, due to his subdued style using his quick wit to meticulously craft jokes. Many of which end up being posted on Reader’s Digest and other publications due to his very original humor.
