The Laughter Lounge with Jessica Delfino (USA), John Donnellan & MC John Lynn
Jessica Delfino (USA): The Best of Dirty Folk Rock
Jessica is a controversial singer, songwriter, and comedian based in New York City. Her songs tend to ridicule taboos and typically include jokes about vaginas and other sexual or dark topics. In her act, she plays an assortment of instruments including guitar, flying V ukulele and a rape whistle.
She has won numerous awards, including beating out Flight of the Conchords to win the Best Musical Act at the 2005 ECNY awards and a 2005 Village Voice "Best of" Award in which the Village Voice declared her to be "fall-off-your-chair hilarious."
Unfortunately both John Colleary & MC David McSavage have cancelled for tonight. They are filming their new TV show for RTE and the shooting will run late into the night tonight. We look forward to having them on another bill soon, in the mean time local comic John Donnellan and the wonderful school teacher turned comic John Lynn have stepped in to rescue the night.
It's going to be a cracker!
