Griefcat

Annie Nardolilli and Louisa Hall, the masterminds behind Griefcat, are a duo that you can’t easily categorize or file into a neat little genre. They are mutually perpetuating forces in matching outfits who together create beautifully blended harmonies and brilliant lyrics, with an unpredictable twist. On their brilliant album Late Stage Capitalism, the nine tracks range from flat out hilarious to unexpectedly thought provoking, each with a unique sound and lyrics to tickle the soul. An amalgamation of musical talent, these troubadours of the modern age display immense songwriting skills and infinite humor, with topical songs that not only dazzle but also make you smile and laugh while making fun of the world in which we live.

Bad Medicine

Bad Medicine is a team of friends from a political town doing non-political comedy. With a bent toward the dark and the absurd, we keep the audience guessing with varied styles and formats, with the goal of pointing out the ugliness and the silliness of real life. It's the right amount of stupid fun. Bad Medicine has performed at comedy festivals such as SF Sketchfest, NYC Sketchfest, Austin Sketchfest, Montreal Sketchfest, Chicago Sketch Comedy Festival, SketchFest Seattle and Philly Sketchfest.
