Claire Belford
Clare Belford is a strikingly sincere comedian. Early in her comedy tenure, she cut her teeth on the road all over her home province of Alberta, telling deeply personal jokes to crowds of drunk tradesmen, from Fort McMurray to Red Deer. She quickly moved to the home of the nation’s largest and most competitive comedy scene, Toronto, where she spent five years honing her craft, and establishing herself as a fixture in Canadian comedy.
These days, Clare continues to make waves, bringing her authentic delivery and unique brand of preposterous pragmatism to festivals like the Halifax Comedy Festival, JFL 42, Field Trip Festival, North by Northeast and more. Her debut album, The Entire Cabbage was released in August 2021 and can be heard regularly on SiriusXM.
CLIFTON CREMO
Clifton Cremo is a Mi'kmaw stand-up comedian from Eskasoni First Nation. In just two short years he became a fixture in the Nova Scotia comedy scene through his deft brand of storytelling and wry absurdism. Nothing is off limits, particularly when it concerns family and his First Nations heritage.
Clifton's unique outlook on his Mi'kmaw upbringing and First Nations issues caught the attention of Ha!ifax Comedy Festival, where he is scheduled to perform in October at Best of the Fest and the Winnipeg Comedy Festival, where he has been booked for virtual fundraising events, and of local comedy show-runners that have seen him open for the likes of JUNO Award Nominees Nick Nemeroff and Matt Wright.
Whether he's on stage at a comedy club, a local bar, or even a funeral (yes, seriously), Clifton always manages to bring the laughs.
