Gabriel Iglesias has been described as unbelievably funny, electrifying, and a gifted performer who has the ability to consistently deliver a quality comedy experience in every venue he performs in. His high-octane show is a hilarious mixture of storytelling, parodies, characters and sound effects that bring all his personal issues to life. Gabe's clean, animated comedy style has earned national crossover appeal. Ask anyone who has seen him in concert and you will probably hear the same thing, "He was so funny!"

Straight No Chaser's trademark vocal sound and unique musical approach initially captured the hearts of America when group member Randy Stine posted a clip for the other alumni of his college a cappella group to enjoy - a quirky version of "The 12 Days of Christmas" featuring a little side trip to Toto?s "Africa." But ten million YouTube views later, Straight No Chaser was an undeniable sensation. Atlantic Records came calling and the group's Holiday Spirits and Christmas Cheers albums accompanied many a tree-trimming party over the past two years.

Straight No Chaser's album success has put them on the Billboard charts and led to appearances on The Today Show, ABC World News Tonight, CNN Headline News, and QVC ... to name a few. The group just filmed their first television special called LIVE IN NEW YORK which will air this March on PBS.
