 The son of Terry Bradshaw and Dolly Parton, Billy Wayne Davis was born at Dollywood wearing a Cosby sweater and a full set of teeth. Having a tremendous lineage to live up to, he chose the only way out, stand up. Getting his start at Zanies Comedy Showplace in Nashville, TN, he's had the honor of working with Colin Quinn, Kathleen Madigan, Bruce Bruce, Earthquake, Lisa Lampanelli, Louis CK ,and the late Mitch Hedberg. He has since been on the road with Ralphie May, featuring for the headliner on stages like the Columbus FunnyBone, the Miami Improv, The Punchline in Atlanta, Seattle's Moore Theater, The Tennessee Theater in Knoxville, and The Laff Stop in Houston, TX. With an approach that's laid back with a bite, Billy Wayne waxes philosophic about college life, homophobes and why his first born will be named after a garnish. Audiences love his quick wit and southern drawl, and always leave wanting more.

Seattles top comics with Duane Goad!

Kristin Key seems like any other sweet, sexy, well-behaved preacher’s daughter… until she opens her mouth. LAST COMIC STANDING put her on the comedy map when she destroyed the room with LAUGHS week after week. Her fearless style of comedy has earned her the title “The Preacher’s Kid Gone Wild.”  Kristin Key, one of the youngest headliners working the road today, began at the age of 19 as the house MC for the Amarillo Comedy Club. Frustrated at the limitations for success in a small town and desperate to find another way, she set out to try open mic night at the local comedy club. She was told she was too young to get into the club. The owners eventually softened, let her on stage, and instantly realized her potential. She was offered a standing M.C. position which she took advantage of week after week. Key says, "I was 19, I didn't know any better. I dropped out of college, quit my job and thought that comedy would pay the bills... I guess I had stars in my eyes, but I spent every day up at the comedy club learning from other comics and taking it all in. Looking back, I was really lucky to get that much stage time. I got paid $75 a week, but the experience was priceless."

 While others her age were heading off to college and working part time jobs, this preachers kid spent night after night in comedy clubs finding new ways to explain and entertain with her unique life experiences. Her quick wit and natural comic timing turned the heads of club owners in the surrounding areas and soon she took to the road. She played comedy clubs, bars, casinos, and one nighters anywhere that would let her. Small shows in the Texas panhandle turned into 35 states worth of comedy over the next 5 years as she climbed the comedy ladder one rung at a time. Audiences couldn't help but love the rapid fire edgy style of comedy comming from the "Preacher's Kid", and though female comics struggled to find work she was booked not for being a woman, but for simply being funny.

KICK IN THE NEW YEAR WITH 2 OF LAUGHS FAVORITE COMEDIANS!

Bengt Washburn (pronounced "bent") is a self proclaimed unaccomplished Mormon. His act has been described as intelligent, whereas Bengt himself is usually described as ditzy, neurotic and logistically impaired. Bengt's show is constructed out of his mistakes, all the details of the "carefully crafted series of unfortunate decisions" that are his life.

A prolific comic, he has produced a DVD, "Mormon Meets World", and two CDs, "Get Bengt" and "Hell Bengt". Both CDs can be heard on XMRadio.

Bengt is a former winner of the prestigious San Francisco International Comedy Competition. He has also been heard on "the Bob and Tom Show".

His ever evolving act is sometimes topical, often autobiographical, at times poignant, mostly true and of course very, very, funny.  A one-of-a-kind gem on the American comedy landscape.
