Andrew Johns

Andrew Johns is a "one man show" and NOT the "one man band" type of show that phrase conjures up. No cymbals pinned to his ears, no bass drum on his back. Just a few keyboards and a drum machine and a pile of talent with a huge repertoire and diversity. He has been compared to Victor Borge as his sometimes "goofy" nature and cerebral sense of humour can shine through... usually at the appropriate moments. He can also be described as a combination of Billy Joel and Elton John with fabulous renditions of both artists as well as many other popular pianists and soloists.

Brent Butt

Brent Butt is often referred to as "one of the funniest men in the country". His unique brand of stand-up comedy has taken him from coast to coast many times over, performing in every province in Canada. Brent learned to get people's attention at an early age; as the youngest of seven children you do what you can to get noticed. He claims his entire family to be hysterically funny, and that proved to be the training ground to cultivate his humor. His act is clean, inoffensive and relaxed. Appearing on A&E, CBC, Global-TV and THE COMEDY CHANNEL, Brent Butt is at the top of the Canadian comedy game. His relaxed, casual style combines with a firm sense of the ridiculous to create hilarious performances people are talking about from coast to coast. Brent was one of the select performers chosen to represent Canada at the world's largest international comedy festival, Montreal's Just For Laughs. Whether it's a dark and twisted alternative show in some seedy nightclub, a polished performance for a thousand seat theatre,or after-dinner entertainment at corporate functions, Brent Butt's comedy always hits the mark.
