Keith Farnan
A former solicitor, Keith has the natural ability to delve into themes other comics may shy away from and it is this aptitude that is placing him in the lead of investigative comedians. He has been a regular guest on radio, both in Ireland and the UK, from BBC, RTE, Talk Sport, Today FM, Newstalk and all sorts of other warm and welcoming studios. Keith Farnan has performed as a stand-up all over the world, from Montreal, to Amsterdam, to Hong Kong. His television credits include BBC3's Most Annoying People, One Night Stand (BBC), Liffey Laughs (RTE) and Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow (BBC1). He has also written for and performed in The Insomniac Club for BBC Radio as well as appearing on Loose Ends and Colin Murphy's Great Unanswered Questions (BBCNI). '... If Eddie Izzard had been Irish, he'd surely have turned out a lot like Keith Farnan' (The Scotsman) 'Brilliant, thought-provoking and laugh out loud funny' (Time Out).

Bennett Arron
The only Jewish Welsh comedian on the circuit, Bennett Arron is also a producer, director and writer and has been described as a cross between the paranoid angst of Woody Allen and the colloquial valley humour of Max Boyce. Also a trained actor, he takes command of the stage and his humour veers between obsessed anxiety and natural occurrences; with his contagious laugh he lights up any room. 'One of the best gagsmiths on the circuit... a Welsh Seinfeld' (The Guardian) 'Genuinely original and funny' (The Times) 'Hilarious... clever wit... razor sharp' (The Standard) 'Wildly talented' (Chortle) 'Had the room creased up' (The Scotsman).

James Cook
Compere at The Comedy Kav at Patrick Kavanagh Bar in Birmingham. 'Not to be confused with the explorer, the bass player in the Arctic Monkeys, a character off of Skins, the BBC's Scotland correspondent, the Australian Rules footballer, the boxer, the square in Middlesbrough, the University in Queensland or the type of Mercedes Mini-van' (James's website) 'An award-winning commercial radio presenter and stand-up comedian his laid back attitude, dry sense of humour and sharp tongue are a rare mix that always fascinates his audiences' (Funhouse Comedy).
