About Andy Iwancio:

Andy is a trans gal comedian from Seattle (by way of Baltimore). With her ten years of comedy she brings a witty, sardonic and slightly profane style to her jokes about navigating marriage, having a disability, and, most importantly, boob puns. In 2023 her comedy EP “Hard Trans”, released on Radland Records debuted at #2 on the itunes comedy chart. She has opened for Kyle Kinane, Whitmer Thomas, James Adomian, Gareth Reynolds and Cameron Epsosito. Festival-wise, she has done Bumbershoot, SF Sketchfest, Women in Comedy NW, Upper Left, Festival, Altercation, and All-Jane. She also appeared in the HUMP! film-festival award-winning film
“Queer Safari” and the Emmy award-winning movie “Star Wars Uncut” She was also a past Comic of the Week on the “Jackie & Laurie”. You also may have heard her as a guest on many podcasts including: “The Sarah Silverman Podcast”, “Bananas with Kurt Braunholer & Scotty Landes”,“Improv4Humans with Matt Besser”, and “Lady 2 Lady with Brandie Posey, Tess Barker and Barbara Gray”.

“She’s a real cool lady” –Horatio Sanz (SNL)

“She’s really funny. Her last name has a lot of vowels too.” –Laurie Kilmartin (CONAN)

“Awesome.” – -Kyle Kinane (Comedy Central)

About A.J. Noris:

AJ is a queer/trans artist and comedian based out of Seattle. He is a club favorite and regular performer at Club Comedy Seattle, Laughs Comedy Club, and Nate Jackson’s Super Funny Comedy Club. When he isn’t busy making people laugh, he spends his time caring for animals, including his own pets. AJ’s aloof and witty style brings a new spin on the hilarity of human existence, and the struggles queer people face moving through the world.

About Burn Out Brass Band:

Founded in June of 2021, Burn Out Brass Band is a Queer HONK! band roving the streets and bringing music to the ears of tired Queers and allies. We’ve got a team of catgirls, bois, butch punks, daddies and xaddies, them fatales, and perhaps even a few cryptids. Our mission is to celebrate Queer joy and build supportive community all while getting those booties dancing to your favorite gay bar sing-alongs and antifascist anthems!

About our host: 
Forest Ember, Clowntrepreneur, Master of Ceremonies, Mistress of Pheromonies, has been producing and hosting comedy shows including monthly Punslams between Seattle, Tacoma, and Olympia for a total of 8 years this month! Forest plays in several activist marching bands, playing percussion and trombone, and her main instrument – the audience’s heart strings ❤️  She can be found at comedy and music venues locally and across the country, doing outreach at KAOS radio, advocating for disability rights, or at home editing videos and studying as she is currently taking psychology and film classes at The Evergreen State College. Neurodivergent and Queer, she’s navigating a world she believes benefits from more whimsy, and brings it whenever she’s able to.
