A pioneer and trendsetter, Andy Bumatai is Hawaii's first stand-up comic and the former member of the once popular Hawaiian comedy troupe, Booga Booga. As a naturally funny and versatile performer, his relaxed style, quick wit, stage presence and charm have made him Hawaii's Don Ho of comedy. There has never been a comic force in Hawaii quite like him, capable of being spontaneously funny anywhere, anytime. But the most refreshing thing about Andy Bumatai, which is reflected in his humor, is that his commitment to comedy is paralleled by his love for Hawaii and its people. James Mane is a larger than life Samoan stand-up comedian, actor, and podcaster. He is the first Samoan to do stand-up comedy on American television in FNX’s First Nations Comedy Experience which can be seen on Amazon Prime. Mane has performed stand up comedy all over the country. Most recently, selling out the Blue Note Hawaii in Waikiki on a Wednesday night. As well as the ‘Dirty at 12:30’ in Las Vegas, The World Famous Comedy Store, the Maui Comedy Festival, and the L.A. Comedy Club. Co-starring in the Adult Swim hit series, ‘Decker’, where Mane played Lanoi Arnold the unofficial king of Hawaii, he also co-starred in the movie ‘Deck of Cards’ which was loosely based off of ‘Decker’.
