Our Headliner, Zach Martina from Michigan, enjoys hot food and the cooling sensation of peppermint candy while taking a deep breath. Yes, he's a stand-up comedian, but you probably guessed that. Did you know he's also a father, husband, six-time cannonball champion, and notary public? This guy has depth and layers. His irritations with life's inane instances have left him ranting and raving on stages worldwide for over a decade. During this time, Zach has been featured at stand-up festivals such as 10,000 Laughs, Limestone, and Gilda’s Laughfest, where he was named one of the "Best of the Midwest." He regularly shares the stage with some of his favorite comedians, including Rory Scovel, Chad Daniels, the Sklar Brothers, and Big Jay Oakerson, among others. He has released two comedy albums, Skunkman and Not the Worst Dad, which debuted at number one on the comedy charts and are regularly spun on SiriusXM. If the equation is "(Dark Jokes + Delightful Delivery) x Big Energy," then Zach Martina is the answer. Come see for yourself!
