Sweet Beth is the debut album from Beth Stelling and it’s a perfect storm of stand-up comedy. Everything you hope to find in a comedian is present and accounted for: Spot-on timing, one hilarious story after the next, an odd relationship with one’s dad, and your mom’s dog humping the guy you bring home to meet the family.

Davis’ humor delves into everything from parenthood and drugs to the similarities between court and church – nothing is off limits, and the comedian can just about saying anything he wants and get away with it thanks to that southern charm and likable personality. At one point, he has his audience in hysterics due to his thoughts on what made the town of Enumclaw, Washington famous - that in 2005, a man died while having sex with a horse.

In Blake Wexler’s latest album, he jokes about night terrors, taking PMS medication for a hangover, and his gleeful discovery of a legendary pitcher’s LinkedIn account. To close it all out, Blake tells a 17-minute deeply personal, emotional, and darkly funny story about a family illness.

Cameron Esposito hasn’t had a Comedy Central special and she doesn’t frequent the hip indie New York City comedy clubs, but this art-house comic has some unique talent that’s made her a favorite among hometown Chicago audiences. Her raspy, excitable delivery is clean and intelligent, and one would imagine her improv performances (her true comedy background) to be enjoyable as well.

Jesse Joyce doesn't do cocaine. It's not his fault that he has 'a look and demeanor that seems to imply I do a lot of blow.' But his jittery, rapid-fire delivery, coupled with a keen pair of 'enormous coke eyes,' helps Joyce deliver big on his debut album, Pro Joyce. Joyce, a well-established roast writer who frequently opened for Greg Giraldo, pairs a sharp wit with precisely the right amount of self-deprecation.

Ostensibly subdued and almost downright subliminal, Lachlan Patterson lulls his audience into a state of relaxation and trust with a turnabout that does not fail to deliver the funny. Jokes To Make Love To (Rooftop Comedy Productions) has the dizzying effects of lying on a beach drinking too many umbrella-adorned rum drinks. Throughout his debut album, you’ll no doubt find yourself nodding and laughing, first with recognition, then with surprise.

Mike is a former police officer from Louisville, Kentucky. He's a regular guest on The Bob and Tom show, with TV credits ranging from Oprah to CBS Morning News to Good Morning America.

While some people might block a late night zucchini experience from their memory forever, Adam relishes the humor of such odd experiences. Adam's life proves to be a terrific source of material, inspiring his dead-on observational style. Hilariously awkward employment stories mix with refreshingly bizarre takes on pop culture.

Not that Robert Buscemi deceives the IRS when he writes "comedian" on the occupation line of his tax return; it’s just that his overriding job is engineer of his nonstop train of thought. On Palpable, the paradoxical Buscemi takes the audience at the Lincoln Lodge in Chicago and listeners everywhere else on an often-impressive express ride through his equally corny and ingenious, grandiose and ingenuous, clownish and refined comic mind.

Chicago alternative comedy scene legend Robert Buscemi followed up his debut album with One Pretty Peacock which finds Robert shaking things up regarding his style of delivery. Heavily influenced by his time spent on Twitter, Buscemi rapid-fires one liners, zinging the crowd with random, idiosyncratic thoughts that, while short, evolve and connect in a brilliant way. Strap in and try to keep up!

On That’s Clinton! Hammond, one of SNL’s longest-running cast members, brings his personal highs and lows to life with fearless candor and hilarious, spot-on impressions of everyone from Sean Connery to George W. Bush. From the depths of drug addiction to being honored by five presidents, Hammond tells us the incredible stories from an extraordinary life. And after impersonating Bill Clinton for 14 years, and sometimes being mistaken for him, he pulls back the curtain on all the ways that Clinton has become a part of his life—and all the illicit things people have tried to offer him in exchange for a Clinton impression. From a true comedy legend comes a collection of stories so good, you’ll want to “put it in a lockbox.”

With his latest release, Shot in the Face, comedian Nick Griffin picks up right where he left off a little more than a year ago. This is a solid follow-up to Bring Out the Monkey and serves to solidify his reputation as an original and consistent performer. Where Griffin especially shines is when he approaches love and relationships. His style is not merely a "Hey, didja notice how we're different" routine but instead he really takes a good look at just how we function and interact... and how it's usually pretty ridiculous.

Born in the former Soviet Republic city of Minsk, Daniel Kinno delivers insightful and raucous narratives on topics ranging from the menial tasks of daily life, to relationships, pop culture, and his unusual Russian heritage with a truly unique perspective. In 1996, Kinno moved to America first settling in Columbus, Ohio. Kinno can be recognized from television where his stand up has been featured on MTV, The Game Show Network, The WB, and NBC.

Eddie Ifft has been both pissing people off and making people laugh his whole life. After a string of dead-end jobs, including being "asked to leave" his father's own insurance company, it was only then did Ifft step onto the stage at an open mic night in his hometown of Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, to see what "two double gin and tonics…a lot of childhood insecurity" and his gift-of-the-controversial gab could do.

Drawing from his experiences as a preschool teacher and a pretty good guy, Josh Gondelman charms audiences with his good-natured storytelling and cracks them up with his sharp, pointy wit.

In his first ever stand-up comedy special, Erik Griffin breaks it down while talking about himself, society as a whole and everything in between. His special "The Ugly Truth" recorded at The Laugh Factory in Long Beach, CA on November 14th, 2015.

This girl's got sass. After questioning a silent audience member at Mottley's Comedy Club in Boston who Kelly MacFarland presumed was questioning her running regimen: "I lost weight a few years ago, and then I was hungry and I was like 'F--k this, I need a cake!" Awarded Best of the Fest at the 2010 Aspen Rooftop Comedy Festival, MacFarland's debut album, Bombshell is the result of that win. And she still feels victorious here.
