Tony O'Malley is a stalwart of the British music scene, best known perhaps as a founder member of the soul band Kokomo.

Kokomo wowed audiences in the 1970s with their 'saxy' brand of soul-funk. They recorded three albums, touring the UK, Europe and America in their own right and supporting The Average White Band on several tours. Bob Dylan even invited them to New York to work with him on his album 'Desire'. They eventually split in 1982, but Tony had been working hard long before Kokomo, and still continues touring, writing and guesting with many great working musicians.

Tony went on to develop a unique jazz/funk style as a solo performer, performing regularly at Ronnie Scott's and the 606 Club in Chelsea. He's recorded seven solo albums, and is well known on the international live music circuit. He regularly works with the cream of British musicians, including Andy Newmark and Neil Hubbard.

Ravi Holy is a now a regular at Lonestar comedy clubs throughout Kent and always goes down a storm with our customers. Book him, sit back and enjoy. Ian Stewart (Promoter of Lonestar Comedy)

Ravi Holy has done many gigs for me at music festivals, posh wine bars and a seaside music venue/pub. He has stormed it every time. Every type of audience has loved him. Up there with my favourites. Nessie Ward (Promoter of Wine Gums Comedy Nights, Cambridge)

I booked Ravi because I knew he would add something different to the night. He succeeded so spectacularly that I took several minutes to reset the atmosphere of the room after he came off stage to make it easier for the next act. Excellent, hilariously funny, can’t wait to have him back! Al Cowie (Promoter of LLaugh Comedy at the Ram Brewery, Wandsworth)

I love comedy and was privileged to work with some of the greatest comedians on television from the 70s to the 90s. So discovering Ravi Holy was a special delight as he not only makes one laugh but also makes one think. It intensifies the pleasure because his performance strikes a chord and lingers in the memory. Annie Rosenberg (Publicity Officer for BBC TV Light Entertainment 1972-1994)*

In 2016, I found myself on the judging panel for a stand-up competition. Before it started, I saw a vicar wandering around. I thought he might be in the wrong place, and was surprised to discover he was one of the contestants. I was even more surprised when he turned out to be brilliant and ended up winning the competition hands down. Everything was there. Ravi Holy has imagination, social comment, well-structured gags and a charming stage persona. Plus he has a brilliant name. Oliver Double (Lecturer in Stand-Up Comedy at the University of Kent and author of Getting the Joke: The Inner Workings of Stand-Up Comedy)
