On September 22nd at the Biltmore Cabaret, Olio Festival will host to some of North America’s finest stand up comedy (no joke, folks), headlined by the hilarious Kyle Kinane.

One of America’s finest joke tellers, Kyle’s signature laid back style has been featured on television stations and programs of all sorts. He will be joined by Vancouver favourites Graham Clark, Kyle Bottom, Adam Pateman, and Sean Devlin in a show hosted by the one and only host of Talent Time's Paul Anthony.

In 1999, Kyle realized there might be something more to it all than pulling nights at a suburban gas station. "Something more" has taken him to comedy festivals across the US, Canada, and England. He has appeared on The World Stands Up for the BBC, twice on Last Call with Carson Daly, and the Judd Apatow production Funny People.

Kyle is a regular opener for headliners like Patton Oswalt and Brian Posehn. More? Askmen.com rated him number five on their top 10 list of upcoming comedians. He has also been named one of the Top 10 Comics to watch by Variety in 2010. And all this thanks to his firm belief in himself:

Need more proof? Okay fine. Here you go:
