BIO
So, did you hear the one about the high school teacher who walked into a comedy club--and they hired him? That's where the Tim Cavanagh comedy story begins. For a full year, Tim taught teenagers by day. By night, he sang his funny songs in Chicago comedy clubs. "Not surprisingly, I found the biggest difference between the classroom and the nightclub was the drunks--which I generally let the principal handle," Tim says.
Since leaving the classroom, Tim Cavanagh has brought his comedic songs and inventive stand-up to concert halls, corporations, college campuses and nightclubs across America. And cruise ships around America. Over the years, he has also made several trips to Canada, where he has to convert all his jokes to Celsius and his one degree in philosophy becomes a bone-chilling minus 31.
Early on, it was Tim's funny music that got a lot of attention. His song, "I Wanna Kiss Her (But She Won't Let Me)," was the first of Tim's pieces to receive national radio exposure, on the legendary "Dr. Demento" show. Other songs followed, including "99 Dead Baboons," "Get Drunk with Dignity," and "Really Safe Sex." His funny tunes have been heard on radio stations everywhere, as well as on Sirius XM and even the BBC.
In 1997, Tim released his first CD, "Sounds Like Fun!" By then he had become a regular guest on "The Bob & Tom Show," a nationally syndicated radio show now heard in 130 markets. For two years, Tim did a weekly segment on the show called "The One Minute Song," which spawned two more CDs. Fast Forward to 2016. That's when Tim's fourth comedy album, "Love, Fish and Sausages," was released. This latest CD contains 20 original comedy songs, backed by some great musicians. The 21st song on the album, "Vehicle Man," is a parody of the 1970 hit "Vehicle." The parody is not only done with permission, Tim actually sings this funny adaptation with Jim Peterik, the man who wrote the original and sang the lead on the "Ides of March" hit.
As for television, Tim has not only appeared on Comedy Central, he was chosen by the network to do several live performances for their clients and customers. His national appearances on ABC-TV, Showtime, and WGN America have put a face to the voice that so many knew only from the radio.
The book, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Jokes, features a half-page of Tim's advice on "How Not to Introduce a Joke," as well as other select Cavanagh jokes. His book, Chicken Soup for the Vegetarian Soul, just went through its sixth printing. Tim firmly believes in printing them "one at a time."

ABOUT OUR HEADLINER
Ateh Ekinde is an up and coming Minneapolis comedian who found his love for the stage in 2019 and has been quickly rising in the Twin Cities comedy scene ever since.
FROM MNCOMEDY.COM:
“When I was young I thought I really wanted to be a doctor,” Ekinde says. “Around 2019 I was trying to get into med school and sort of realized like, I’m not sure this is for me. I did my first open mic at Acme Comedy Company around that time and it went very well, and I was just like, ‘Oh, this is what I want to do.’”
Of course, telling mom and dad that you’re switching careers from doctor to aspiring stand-up comic isn’t necessarily a conversation that many parents dream of.
“It was tough because my parents had never really seen that side of me,” Ekinde continues. “They never saw that I had this joker or creative side. So I think the combination of that and the thought that I was just running away from medical school – which I was – gave them a lot of anxiety. But even though they may not have always believed in it [comedy], they always supported me.’”
Ekinde has come a long way since then, regularly featuring at clubs all over the Midwest, and opening for Brendan Gay on the road.
Dick Wolf Improv is an hour-long completely improvised episode of the famous show, Law and Order.

ABOUT YOUR HEADLINER
Jeremiah Coughlan is a comedian. A comedian who physically resembles what would happen if Chris Farley ate Bob Ross. His stage presence embodies some of the same traits. He is an imperfect mix of chaos and control. In what can seem paradoxical Jeremiah carries a calm and contented demeanor in to his high energy and surprisingly athletic stage performances. Although he still hasn’t figured out how to complete a painting in 30-minutes.
With his candid, conversational brand of self-deprecating humor, Jeremiah has become a regular performer at Clubs all over the Northwest including Helium Comedy Club. He has been featured on Audible’s comedy series “Sounds Like America”. He has performed in The Idaho Laugh Festival in Boise, Idaho, The SF Sketchfest in San Francisco, California, Crom Comedy Festival in Toronto, Ontario, The Big Pine Comedy Festival in Flagstaff, Arizona, and most recently The 10,000 Laughs Comedy Festival in Minneapolis, Minnesota where he was nominated as “Best of the Fest” by the festival’s organizers.
"Are You Afraid of the Improv?" is a 1 hour long, completed improvised, comedic episode of the 90's classic "Are You Afraid of the Dark?"
