PERFORMER BIOS
Moody McCarthy
Moody McCarthy is a stand-up comedian who has performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Conan, and the Letterman Show. He lives in New York City with his wife and two wee lasses.
Moody has performed at the best clubs in the land and can be heard on SiriusXM. He’s also been featured on America’s Got Talent and Last Comic Standing, but gets asked more about his "House Hunters" episode.
Moody was born "Matthew" into a big Irish family where - by law - someone gets a nickname. He began doing comedy in Upstate New York in the 1900s, and covered sports on Syracuse’s top radio show before moving to New York City.
Moody’s material is described as original but universal, and smart without being trite. Couple that with a disarming stage presence & in-the-moment chops, you’ll see why he’s earned the admiration of his peers for his ability to “go up cold”. Corporate outings, fundraisers, private parties – you name it, this versatile performer will brighten any event.
Damon Millard
Damon Millard asks some of the biggest questions: why are we here, what does it mean to exist, and why am I getting fat? From his humble poverty-stricken roots, to the insanity of modern life in New York City, Damon hits all the stops on the roller coaster of his life. His performance is a fearless, high-energy retelling of run ins with the law, failed relationships, and other struggles. Sometimes brilliant, sometimes crude, but never superficial; Damon is a powerful comedic voice who actually has something to say.
Damon is currently based out of New York City but spends most of his time traveling and performing all over the country. Damon began performing comedy in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 2009 and he recently returned there to record his debut, full-length album, Shame, Pain, And Love. The album was signed to a major comedy label, Comedy Dynamics and is now available on iTunes, Google Play, Amazon Prime, and streaming on Spotify and Sirius XM. He created and hosts a wildly popular web series, The Low-Budget Show.
Suzanne Lee Shepherd
Suzanne Lea Shepherd has appeared on Comedy Central Asia and performed in the San Fransisco Comedy Competition, New York Winter Laughs Festival, DC Comedy Festival and She Devil Comedy Festival. She has taken four standup solo shows to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and is appearing in this year’s North Carolina Comedy Festival."
Michelle Slonim
Two days after Michelle Slonim gave birth to a baby girl, Michelle received an email saying she was cast in a sketch for Late Night With Seth Meyers. Michelle had gone on tons of auditions: once in a chicken costume, another time in a bikini while eight months pregnant, and she never got the part. Now a week after her baby was welcomed into the world, Michelle’s in hair, makeup and wardrobe, on set for a major network television show. She plans to have a second child so she can make an appearance on Conan.
Michelle has appeared on web-shows for Comedy Central and HBO and on SiriusXM Radio. You can see her performing stand up comedy in most clubs and bar shows in New York City. Michelle trained at the University of Michigan and the Williamstown Theater Festival, as an apprentice to Lewis Black. She is a seasoned producer having worked on 24 Hour Celebrity Plays on Broadway and produced shows at Webster Hall and Le Poisson Rouge. Special guest performers on her shows have included Dave Attell and Greer Barnes from the Chapelle Show. Though happily married now, for her Anti Valentine’s Day Comedy Show, she was prominently featured in The Wall Street Journal, although as her mother pointed out, it was only on page two in the print edition.
