Raised in a small town in Canada and now residing in the big city of New York, Michael Harrison has become a favorite at clubs all over North America, Asia, and Europe! With an engagingly relatable and energetic style, Michaels humor garners accolades in whatever situation you put him whether it be a college, corporate, church, comedy club, cruise ship, or bar.
Besides amassing a ridiculously busy touring schedule, Michael has found the time to parlay his talents into film and TV. He has acted and been featured in several projects including Much Music’s Video on Trial, NBC’s The Bridge, Queer as Folk, the TBS movie The Jazzman and as a co-host on E-West. His stand up was also featured in his very own nationally syndicated half hour comedy special!
Avid radio listeners may have also heard his comedy on several programs all over Sirius XM where he is in constant rotation. This has led to the release of the upcoming album “Freak Laugh” which will be released later in 2019. Michael has also been featured in several prestigious comedy festivals including Just for Laughs in Montreal, the Clean Showcase show at Laughfest, and as the main headliner at the Windsor Comedy festival.
Charming, candid, and laugh out loud funny, Michael Harrison is an act you will want to see over and over again.

Brett was born in 92′ but we’re pretty sure he grew up in the 80’s. He’s upset with his generation and thinks you should be too. For Brett, frustration leads to comedy. If something rubs him the wrong way, you’re sure to get a laugh out of it.
After winning ‘Yuk Yuks Top New Comic’ of 2016 and ‘Edmonton’s Funniest Person’ in 2017, Forte was rewarded with a trip to the Just For Laughs festival in Montreal, to perform on the highly-acclaimed ‘New Faces’ showcase. Since then he’s been a favourite at Just For Laughs North West and has appeared on CBC’s New Wave of Standup.
The jokes he doesn’t get to tell on TV he takes to the Roast Battle arena. Brett’s unique spin on Roast Battles has garnered the attention of fans and industry across the country and provides one of the most unique and raw experiences you can find in a comedy club today.
Hosted by Brian Giles and featuring Maggie Estey, John Skov-Nielsen and Taylor Lakeport.
