Hank Wangford

Hank Wangford is a distinguished English country and western songwriter - and the stage name of Dr. Samuel Hutt, (b.1940). His music is notable for its humour and cheerful irony, and occasional excursions into biting political undercurrent. It is said that a chance meeting with Gram Parsons (formerly a member of The Byrds), who played him the song "You're Still on My Mind" (from the album Sweetheart of the Rodeo), led him to country music. Although his first recordings in the Hank Wangford guise were made with a group of leading session musicians, he now works with a group.

H. Jon Benjamin

H. Jon Benjamin (born May 23, 1966 in Worcester, Massachusetts) is an American comedian and actor, known mostly for his extensive voice acting. Benjamin's comedy career began when he was around twenty-four in Boston where he was first in a comedy duo with Sam Seder, then a member of Cross Comedy, a comedy team led by David Cross. For around the first seven years of his career, Benjamin almost exclusively worked in groups rather than independently. Afterwards, his independent work remained more experimental, rejecting traditional styles of stand-up comedy in favour of playing with the medium.
