Kathleen Kanz
Kyle is super-natural and unpretentious, but a wickedly precise, utterly original wordsmith. One of my all-time faves.
Erin Foley
Erin is cool as a cucumber, and blew me away at the 2008 Rooftop Aspen Fest with her smoothness and creativity.
Matt Braunger
Saw this one on Letterman too. I love the detail–you can tell Braunger researched it. One of the most talented performers I know.
Tig Notaro
No one touches Notaro for cool, weird, hipster chic. She destroyed me at the 2008 Rooftop Fest — her sweater/shirt combo alone suggest ninja-level absurdism.
Nick Vatterott
Vatterot is one of the most prolific, experimental, revered comics I know. His energy and inventiveness are ridic.
Andi Smith
Andi’s another comic I saw kill at the 2008 Rooftop Aspen Fest. Home Perm ROCKS. She’s a hilariously brazen smart-ass, but balances cynicism with performing chops and superb writing.
