Matt O'Brien is a Toronto based comedian who has been featured on MTV, CTV, Fuse TV, MuchMusic and The Comedy Network. He recently performed a live TV taping at the Just For Laughs festival in Montreal, and was hand picked to be one of the prestigious 42 at the JFL42 festival in Toronto.

He has won the Best Standup award at the LA Comedy Festival and has also been named Sirius XM Radio's Next Top Comic. In 2014 he was nominated for Best Break Out Artist at the Canadian Comedy Awards and was also nominated as 2013/2014 COCA Comedian of the year. He hosts and produces his own podcast "Rehash", his own late night talk show "Late Night Talk Show on a Subway with Matt O'Brien", and his 6-second Vine sketches have garnered him over 18,000 followers.


Matt Davis is a firm believer that nothing is sacred…nothing is safe. Logging repeat performances in over 150 cities and eight countries, well over one million online video views, and five full length comedy albums, Matt Davis is a comedic force of dark and dirty humor. Matt was recently featured at Sketch Fest in San Francisco (2013) and on The Nasty Show at the Just For Laughs festival in Montreal (2012), as well as an appearance at JFL42 in Toronto (2012).

Already a veteran touring performer, he recently headlined the 12 show “Operation Laughter” tour for U.S. troops in the Middle East and Africa (presented by Armed Forces Entertainment) that covered nine bases in five countries (2013). Matt’s “dirty but smart” sense of humor has earned him an Editor’s Choice on Sony’s Crackle.com (2007), and has had him featured in a top ten list on Cracked Magazine’s Cracked.com (2012).
