Success 5000 promoEdmonton, Alberta

Philly Sketchfest – 2016

Success 5000 is an Edmonton-based duo specializing in musical comedy. They have headlined every stand-up room in Edmonton, toured the country, and have been featured in comedy festivals such as Vancouver Sketch Fest and Improvaganza. They will soon be featured on an upcoming episode of CBC’s ‘The Irrelevant Show’. Their award-winning short films have been screened as part of the Edmonton International Film Festival and the NextFest Emerging Artists’ Festival, and their original production in the 2015 Edmonton Fringe sold out every night of its run. Their first album, titled ‘Laughcore’, was released in March of 2015 at the Citadel Theatre in Edmonton. Their music blends absurd humour with biting cynicism; a recent review noted that “their songs are layered with fun, seriousness, self deprecation, love, thoughtfulness and a fine, refreshing touch of nihilism.”
