At six feet, nine inches, Alex Price was always going to be the center of attention anyway. He developed an outsized sense of humor to match his physical stature and quickly became known in comedy circles far away from his native Indiana. His unflinching, self-deprecating and hilarious take on life as an actual giant form the basis of an act that's garnered him opening spots for Dave Attell, Kyle Kinane, and Hannibal Buress and many appearances at festivals across the country such as SF Sketchfest, 10’000 Laughs and The Limestone Comedy Festival. It's a perspective you've likely never considered, but that you're sure to never forget.

Kelsey is a stand-up comedian and improviser based in Denver, CO. Her dad called her comedy 'myopic,' but she likes to think that her shows are a romp through her obsessive thoughts on mental health, friendship, politics and of course, romance.
She has performed with The Grawlix Live, and has featured for Kenny DeForest, Mandee McKelvey and Shane Torres. Kelsey has performed at the Vail Comedy Festival, Dallas Comedy Festival, Third Coast Improv Festival, and the Asheville Improv Festival.
You've probably heard her laugh.

Drew Morgan (Comedy Central) and DJ Lewis (CMT) are coming to touch your hearts and butts (with permission) at Asheville Beauty Academy!
Co-hosts of the world wide phenomenon Into the Abiscuit Podcast, DJ Lewis and Drew Morgan are gonna so some stand up and change the world.
You know us, you hate us, and you want to die from laughing - well this night is for you. Come on out, y'all.
Drew Morgan is the first person in his family to go into comedy. His act has been described as “Mark Twain on acid,” and that pretty much gets at it. Hailing from Sunbright, Tennessee, which has a population of about 597 good people and 3 really shitty ones, he was raised by a preacher and a librarian. This explains Drew’s curiosity and constant state of existential crisis.
Drew has been featured on MTV, Comedy Central and ABC’s the View. He tours nationally with the wellRED comedy tour and is the Co-author of the book “The Liberal Redneck Manifesto.” He is a good dancer.
D.j. Lewis is the co host of Into the Abiscuit and travels around the south doing comedy. His comedy is much like a canned meat, not very pretty to look at, understood mostly by poor people, and best when baked.
A rapper, actor, singer and part time astronaut - DJ has been featured on CMT and is the only man to have ever owned a space possum.
hosted by TBA
