Comics for the Night:
Host Vinny Cerone is a Chicago-area stand-up comedian and the producer and host of Bits & Buckets at The Comedy Vault. He has opened for nationally touring comedians including Robert Kelly, Jordan Jensen, and Brooks Wheelan. His laid-back delivery and sharp observational style have quickly made him a rising presence in the Chicago comedy scene.
Special Guest Open Mic Winner Jim Taylor.
Main Feature Brando Harris is a Chicago-based comedian and producer known for his rapid-fire punchlines, chaotic storytelling, and effortlessly likable presence. His comedy blends wild personal history, relationship chaos, and parenting as a biracial father to an even more biracial son. Brando has performed at clubs all over the city, including regular spots at Zanies, where he released his micro-set special “My White Son” on YouTube. He’s been featured on Roast Battle Chicago and performed at the prestigious 312 Comedy Festival in 2023- 2025. Whether he’s unpacking childhood trauma, cracking jokes about race and family, or oversharing about his messy love life, Brando keeps it real—and real funny.
Headliner Luca Ferro is a New York–based, Chicago-raised stand-up comedian known for his loud, animated stage presence, sharp characters, and material rooted in his Italian American upbringing. He has performed in major clubs across the U.S., including the Las Vegas Strip, and has opened for comedians such as Steve Byrne, Adam Ray, Yannis Pappas, and Joe Gatto. Ferro was also selected recently to appear on Nate Bargatze’s “Nateland” YouTube series.
