Chris Harvey
At six foot four and five hundred pounds, comedian Chris Harvey strikes an imposing figure when he first walks on stage. Then the gentle giant smiles, and the truth comes out: he is really just a bald and bearded teddy bear. Soft spoken and prone to laughing along with the audience, he grew up on the poor side of Akron, Ohio. He knew from an early age that he was destined for more, and now that he is living in Atlanta he is well on his way to becoming comedy’s next big thing. Even though he has been performing stand-up for less than a decade, Chris has already had an outstanding career filled with envious highlights. He has been seen at the 2019 Cleveland Comedy Festival and the 2020 Indie Pods United Festival. In 2015 he was voted Ohio’s Best Amateur Comedian, followed by Toledo’s Best Urban Comic in 2016. His accolades continued in 2018 where he was nominated for Ohio’s Best Comedian and nominated in both 2019, 2020, 2022 as Cleveland’s Road Warrior. He also has a resume of film, television and commercial appearances. Chris has been seen on FOX as well as in “Hey Mr. Post Man” and “Rent Due”, available on Hulu, Starz and Amazon Prime. In addition, he was featured in a music video for the song “100” by Roddy Ricch ft 42 Dugg. Seen in upcoming feature film “A Drone That Saved Christmas” will be released in 2023. Chris works tirelessly to bring his punchlines to the people. He has performed at some of the best comedy clubs in the nation, including Funny Bones, Improvs, Helium, and The House of Comedy at the Mall of America. He shared the stage with top tier talent such as Tommy Davidson, Donny Baker, Daman Wayans Jr, Josh Wolf, Tony Rock and Preacher Lawson. He has also toured extensively, doing both a Brewery and Winery comedy tour in 2019 that took him all across the nation as well as the First Responders Comedy Tour in 2020. Chris Harvey has a self-deprecating style that is universal in its appeal. His smooth delivery and confidence compliment the urban edge he brings to the stage. You have never seen a comic quite like him before, but once you do, you are going to want to see him again and again.

An Intimate Evening w/ Canton Jones – Gospel Singer
Contemporary gospel singer, rapper, and producer Canton Jones grew up in a musical family in Deerfield Beach, a coastal town in southeast Florida. As early as the age of five, Jones joined a singing quartet his father formed, and by age 16 he was making beats for himself and other local singers. After high school, Jones moved his home base to Atlanta, where he attended Morehouse College. It was there that the singer joined the school’s popular glee club, which afforded him a chance to tour extensively and sing for Oprah Winfrey, Stevie Wonder, Bobby Jones, and Ray Charles, among others. In the meantime, Jones also attended Pastor Creflo Dollar’s World Changers Church, where he sang in the choir. During a solo performance in one of the megachurch’s services, Jones caught the attention of the congregation’s youth pastor, who asked him to help in the youth department. He did, and not long after, he made his recorded debut for the Holy Hip Hop label with 20 Yrs. 3 Mths. & 12 Days… (2002) and set up his own outlet, CAJO. His breakthrough came with an appearance on the Grammy-nominated compilation album Holy Hip Hop: Taking Gospel to the Streets; his subsequent release, Love Jones (2005), made its debut on Billboard’s Top Gospel Albums chart at number 11. Jones’ profile continued to rise throughout the remainder of the decade and the 2010s. Among his charting releases were all four volumes in the Kingdom Business series (2008-2013), the double album Dominionaire (2011), and I Am Justice (2016). ~ Andree Farias
