The WSOC Records Album Recording Shows Information


The World Series of Comedy (WSOC) is North America's largest touring comedy festival. The WSOC produces 17 events per year in cities across the country, culminating in the year-end Finals, The Main Event in Las Vegas. Notable alumni of the festival include Josh Blue, Kabir Singh, Beth Stelling, Kiry Shabazz, JR De Guzman, Ryan Neimiller, Ellis Rodriguez, Zoltan Kaszas, Willie Macc, James Schraeder, Mia Jackson, and hundreds more working comedians. In addition to many other writing and performing credits, former contestants have been featured on The Tonight Show, Late Night, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Conan, Ellen, @midnight, The Pete Holmes Show, and The Late Show.


In 2022, The WSOC launched WSOC Records, a new division of the company focused on producing high quality audio recordings to release albums featuring the great performers that participate in the festival. An exclusive distribution deal was struck with Sirius XM to release content through their multiple standup comedy satellite radio channels. This year, The WSOC has added a new series of live performance events called WSOC Records Album Recording Shows to create content and specifically record full albums for distribution on Sirius XM.


WSOC Records Album Recording Show Format:


Joe Lowers, Founder and CEO of The WSOC is a nationally touring headliner that will close each show for the WSOC Records Album Recording shows. At each location, there is a dedicated feature act that will open for Joe, along with a number of hand-selected guest performers. The guest performers are all alumni of The World Series of Comedy. They have performed at The Main Event and are members of the Top 101 of the festival’s year-long contest. These comedians have beat out hundreds of other performers as judges by a panel of industry experts that represent comedy clubs, talent agencies, TV production companies and management companies. Many of the guest performers are past winners of Satellite events (weeklong contests held by The WSOC), and are touring comedians that feature and headline at various comedy clubs around the country.


The goal for the festival is to release two albums per event – one dedicated to the feature performer, and one that is a compilation of performances of the guest performers, as well as the professional comedians that tour with the festival and act as host and MC for the show. Joe will also be recording material all season long and release an album at the end of the tour. All of the tracks are releases on Raw Comedy, but many go on to be placed on additional Sirius XM channels like Pure Comedy, Kevin Hart’s LOL and She’s So Funny.


Headliner Bio for Joe Lowers, CEO of The WSOC:


After headlining his own show in Las Vegas for over 10 years, Joe has packed it up and taken it on the road! Comedic veteran Joe Lowers brings his unique style of comedy to the stage and has been entertaining audiences for over 25 years. His ability to involve the audience has made him a one-of-a-kind comedian. Joe not only involves the audience, but he also involves the other comics working with him. It’s a comedy show like you’ve never seen. No knock-knock jokes here, just incredible observations of non-stop adult entertainment.


Feature Act Bio for AJ Foster:


AJ Foster is a comic and writer known for his appearances on Fox’s “Laughs”, AXS TV’s “Gotham Comedy Live”, and “Lyft Comics” on Kevin Hart’s LOL Network. He is a fast-rising star in the world of standup and quickly becoming one of the most sought out performers at clubs across the country. AJ’s blend of quick-witted observational humor and storytelling paired with his laid-back delivery captivates audiences; making them just as comfortable as he appears on stage. Combine that with his charm and contagious smile and you have a comedian who is both lovable and relatable to people of all ages and backgrounds.



WSOC Records Album Recording Shows schedule:


This year, the festival has dedicated six weeks to the WSOC Records Album Recording Shows, and will host events in Atlanta, Sarasota, Plano, Erie, Little Rock and Massillon.
