The Oddfest 鈥?Metro Area #1 Comedy Show 鈥?August 10 2006

Metro area fans of the funny and off-beat are in for a treat this summer as The Oddfest rollicks into town. Be at Mo Pitkins House of Satisfaction (34 Avenue A, New York City, N.Y.) on Thursday, August 10th, at 10:00 p.m. to experience this hysterical comedy show. The Oddfest first made its appearance in 2003 (see www.theoddfest.com for highlights) and this year's show promises to be even more uproarious than the first!

Organized by FIDIM Interactive, LLC (www.fidim.com) 鈥?a record label that specializes in comedy and novelty music 鈥?The Oddfest is a celebration of comedy, music and artists that brings together some of today's funniest acts. This year's Oddfest will be hosted by Grammy庐 nominated singer and comedian Red Peters, host of the weekly Red Peters Comedy Music Hour on Howard Stern's Howard 101. He will be introducing popular comedy acts Sudden Death, Worm Quartet, and Joshua Grosvent.

Red Peters (www.redpeters.com) is well known as the Friday night host of the Sirius Satellite radio comedy show bearing his name. His 2004 hit I Can鈥檛 Say These Things was nominated for Song Of The Year in the 47th Annual Grammy庐 Awards. He also had a major holiday hit with the carnal carole Holy S***, It's Christmas! Red's songs may be heard on the radio, in films and during his public appearances.

Sudden Death (www.suddendeath.org) is the top comedy rap group today. Their hit Inner Voice from their critically acclaimed album Die Laughing topped the comedy charts in 2005, winning the title that year of Most Requested Song on the nationally-syndicated radio program The Doctor Demento Show. Sudden Death has released six albums, including 2002's wildly popular Fatal Accident Zone. Sudden Death's road show is a multimedia hip-hop experience, synchronizing video and animations into the musically comedic performances.

Worm Quartet (www.wormquartet.com) Worm Quartet creates some incredibly strange and wonderfully twisted songs. This creative and funny one-man "comedy electro-punkish band" hails from Rochester, N.Y. ShoEboX, front-man to this musical experience, penned the touching ex-girlfriend ballad Great Idea For A Song, which was the most requested song of 2004 on Dr. Demento. I Bit William Shatner, Frank's Not In The Band Anymore and others became popular comedy hits and many Worm Quartet songs are featured on Dr. Demento's compilation albums.

Joshua Grosvent (www.thisisjoshua.com) - Producer of the popular comedy show Comedy is for Humans, this self-proclaimed 鈥淐omedic Songsmith鈥?and his songs have become a staple in the New York City humor scene. Whether he's singing about making love in Senior Citizen Lovin' or about a popular guilty private pleasure in MySpace, his shows are not worth missing. Infusing music with stand-up, improv, technology and audio effects, Joshua's road shows slay rock venues and colleges all over the country with a full-on multimedia experience. Grosvent is currently shooting his very first mini-pilot as well as his first music videos. The Oddfest will be his last appearance in New York City for several months while he tours, so get out and enjoy it!
