Erin Harkes was introduced to the 443 as a musician but her comedy alter-ego poked through, and we decided to bring some stand-up to our wonderful music venue!

Erin has been voted the best comedian in the Capital Region for nearly a decade, has released two albums, one YouTube special, and opened for the likes of Craig Robinson, Demetri Martin, and Mark Normand.

She is producing and hosting each show with a new, talented comedian (or two) each month!

Jaye McBride is funny, smart and proudly transgender. Jaye is the first openly transgender comedian to perform at Madison Square Garden is a regular at New York City’s “Comedy Cellar”. In 2021 she was featured as one of the “New Faces” at the Just For Laugh’s comedy festival and has also been featured at The Boston and Limestone Comedy Festivals.

In addition to stand-up, Jaye speaks at high schools, colleges and groups all across the country about being transgender and how we can help trans kids from facing some of the obstacles and challenges she faced. Having transitioned in 2007, Jaye is uniquely qualified to talk about awkward first dates, strained family relationships and self-acceptance.

Jaye is originally from Upstate NY but now lives in Brooklyn, NY.

On the heels of a successful YouTube special and album release entitled ‘Uncle Ernie’, Erin Harkes brings her dry, wry, sarcastic, and self-deprecating humor back to the 443 stage.

Erin has performed all over North America and is a regular at New York Comedy Club in NYC. She has two albums available on iTunes and Spotify and has been played on multiple Sirius channels.
