Actor/comedian Jason Salmon (Orange Is The New Black, 30 Rock) is definitely aware of how one person’s interpretation of what’s funny can be miles apart from another’s, but he also understands how one’s real life experiences can add significant authenticity to comedic material. Born in Texas, Salmon grew up in a religious yet practical family who taught him as much about the power of humor to enhance lives as they did about the nuts and bolts of comedy itself. That formative childhood upbringing was but one influence that has informed Salmon’s style of comedy. Extensively working to refine his material from performance to performance, Salmon also found immense sources of comedic inspiration from his adult life. After hundreds of road trips and real time fine-tuning of his comedic skills, Salmon shares his hilarious yet humanistic view on the world in his debut live stand-up album, Force Of Nurture. Released on CD and digital through 800 Pound Gorilla Records, Force Of Nurture gives listeners a chance to hear Salmon expound on subjects both newsworthy (politics, society, culture) and autobiographical (his childhood, life in Texas and New York, offbeat people, etc.) Upon its premiere release on October 23rd, Force Of Nurture has become a successful milestone in Salmon’s burgeoning comedy career. Though Salmon is highly accustomed to cutting up on camera during guest roles on 30 Rock, Orange Is The New Black and Funny or Die online comedy skits, Salmon embraces the thrill of sharing his unique — and clean — approach to stand-up comedy on every track of Force of Nurture. Of course, it took a long time for Salmon to make that approach as perfect as possible for his audiences, and as he discusses herein, his first recorded live set demonstrates the extent of his thorough preparation.    

As a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and ("moral") bankruptcy lawyer, it was unlikely that Talia's comedy career would start off in bar basements and midnight open mics, but that's where her soul was redeemed. Her set is high-energy, quick paced and autobiographical. The New York Post recently featured a nearly full-page article about her life and comedy entitled, "Orthodox Jewish comic finds balance between raunch and religion," and called her a "Hot Ticket". Talia is a regular "comedic" legal contributor to Fox News and Compound Media, and has opened for Caroline Rhea and Nick DiPaolo. Her affable stage presence and sharp wit have also garnered her appearances on The Wendy Williams Show and Spike TV. Newsday Long Island has also taken notice, calling her a "rising star". Talia has completed residencies at The Borgata Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, NJ and Mohegan Sun in Wilkes-Barre, PA. She continues to be a constant presence in New York's top clubs, as well as Jewish events and fundraisers.

Liz Barrett is a New-York based stand-up comedian and writer. Raised in a military family and having moved all around the world, Liz is deadpan, dry, engaging, and offers shrewd observations about life and womanhood.  You’ll remember her one-liners long after you see her.   Liz has appeared on AXS TV Gotham Comedy Live, Laughs on FOX, Lifetime, Funny or Die and New York Post Videos. You can also hear her on Raw Dog Comedy on SiriusXM.  She’s a regular at Carolines, Gotham Comedy Club, New York Comedy Club, Catch a Rising Star and The Brokerage.

She has appeared at numerous comedy festivals including , Women in Comedy Festival, and Ladies of Laughter. Since 2013, Liz has produced her own monthly show Grin and Barrett which has been described as “puntastically named” and “one of the best shows in the city produced by a female comedian.”

Tamer Kattan was born an outsider and that’s where he stayed. An Egyptian-born American dropped into a family of Muslims, Christians and Jews, left him incredibly comfortable in the uncomfortable.  From school yard bullies to an abusive father, comedy quickly became a weapon of this underdog.  A multi-award winning international comedian with TV and commercial credits in the United States and UK, Tamer has a uniquely deep understanding of the human condition. Tamer is a regular at the Comedy Store, Improv and Laugh Factory in Los Angeles. This is one comic you do not want to miss live.
