About ISMO: Woo Hoo! World Tour
ISMO has been called “the most insightful comic in Finland” and as a new resident in the United States, Ismo continues to be the ultimate observer and master of word-play. His uniquely observational comedy makes people see familiar things differently through ISMO’s new-to-America perspective. In 2021, ISMO published the international edition of his bestselling book “US & Us: Surviving Hollywood With Comedy”. One of the most listened to audiobooks in Finland, ISMO gave fans an honest behind the scenes glimpse of stand-up comedy in the United States and a comedic recounting of the differences between the Finnish and American cultures. Following the success of his first book, ISMO is slated to write a follow-up in 2023.
His U.S. debut was in 2014 at the Laugh Factory in Hollywood where ISMO won the title of“ The Funniest Person in the World.” In December 2015, he relocated to Los Angeles, and now performs to sold-out crowds around the world including: the US, Canada, Australia, Mexico and Europe. He has also gained attention at the biggest comedy festivals including: Just For Laughs (Montreal, Toronto and Bermuda), Sydney Comedy Festival, Melbourne Comedy Festival, Edinburgh Fringe, and The New Zealand International Comedy Festival.
ISMO can be seen regularly performing in LA clubs and headlining across the US. This year he sold out ISMO & FRIENDS at his home club The Laugh Factory, for the inaugural Netflix Is a Joke Festival. In 2018, ISMO was the first Finnish comedian to perform on Conan and the clip of his set has become one of the most viewed late-night sets with over 106 million views. In the fall of 2019, ISMO made his debut appearance on The Late Late Show with James Corden with an overwhelming response. He has also been seen on NBC’s Bring The Funny, NBC's Last Call with Carson Daly and in January 2019, he teamed up with Merriam Webster to release a digital comedy series of videos roasting the English language.
