    Description

    The Apple Sisters are an award winning musical comedy trio originally from New York and are now darlings of the LA & Las Vegas Alternative comedy scene. Since it's conception, The Apple Sisters, Kimmy Gatewood ("GLOW"), Rebekka Johnson ("GLOW") and Sarah Lowe ("Jersey Boys"), have presented a brand new hilarious 1940s radio show with original songs, dances, commercials, and comedy to sold out crowds. They have made appearances on "CONAN," "Bridesmaids," "Ricki Lake," Home & Family, CurrentTV, Ed Helms’ "Whiskey Sour Hour," and recently "A Christmas Story Live!" They have opened for Dead Man's Bones, singer/songwriter Ingrid Michaelson, and hosted "The Side-Eye" for the Emerge Impact + Music Festival in Las Vegas. They recorded their first self-titled album after they caught the eye of actor Ryan Gosling, who produced the EP. It was named a top album of the year in 2010 by the AV Club and who deemed it "infinitely re-listenable as well as comically savvy." Their second album "1943" (released in 2012) was crowdsource funded and distributed on vinyl. "1943" was named one of the top ten albums of 2012 by The Spit Take and called "A blueprint of how to make a great comedy album." Their third album “Happy Holidoozy” featured a 19 piece orchestra as well as Emmy Award winner, Tony Hale. The Apple Sisters have performed around the country and hosted a podcast on Earwolf with an impressive roster of guest stars, including Olivia Wilde, Bob Odenkirk, Ginnifer Goodwin, Rich Sommers, Ellie Kemper, Kate Micucci, Paul F. Tompkins, Danny Franzese, and many others.

    Kids These Days is a supergroup of diverse talent, with a Swiss Army Knife of surprises they use to constantly delight audiences. Just featured on NBC’s “Bring the Funny,” where they were selected from thousands of acts around the world to represent sketch comedy on national television (AND elicited a standing ovation from Jeff Foxworthy), Kids These Days puts on a true variety sketch show. Each performance is filled with stage, digital, and musical sketches, celebrity impressions, and more! Kids These Days features members whose work can be seen on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, Funny or Die, Reductress and more. They have a recurring monthly mainstage show at the People’s Improv Theater in New York, are headlining the 2019 Flyover Comedy Festival in St. Louis, and performed at the 2019 San Francisco Sketchfest, 2019 Portland Sketch Fest, 2019 Austin Sketch Fest, 2019 Charleston Comedy Festival, 2018 NY Comedy Fest, 2018 NY SketchFest, 2018 HBO/The Television Academy’s Independent Television Festival, & the 2018 Out of Bounds Comedy Festival in Austin, TX.
