Cool Comedy - Hot Cuisine Coming Up! At House Of Blues W/Comedy, Live Music, Celeb Guests!

In its 26th year, Cool Comedy – Hot Cuisine (CCHC) comes to Las Vegas for the first time, bringing the Scleroderma Research Foundation’s (SRF) signature fundraiser event to the House of Blues inside Mandalay Bay Hotel & Casino. On Thursday, June 5, comedian and SRF Board Member Bob Saget will host an evening of comedy, live music with special guest Ben Folds and exquisite cuisine, prepared by celebrated Vegas chefs and Top Chef Masters personalities Susan Feniger, Mary Sue Milliken and Rick Moonen.

Bringing this event to Las Vegas from its traditional entertainment and culinary capitals of Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York, the SRF will host its signature fundraiser event where celebrity chefs, comedians, and musical guests come together for a night of entertainment to raise funds and spread awareness for scleroderma. The disease means “hard skin”, often attacking the lungs, kidneys, and gastrointestinal tract with life-threatening consequences. The event supports scleroderma research at premier institutions such as Harvard, Johns Hopkins, Stanford University and UCSF.

To complement the entertainment, the event will also include a cocktail reception, as well as four-course dinner experience prepared by Border Grill Co-Chef/Owners Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger, also a founding SRF Board Member; and Rick Moonen of rm seafood and Rx Boiler Room in the Shoppes at Mandalay Place, for guests to enjoy throughout the evening.

“There are many things I am proud of in my professional life, but this Foundation that I started with my best friend and college roommate, is a high point; we are making a difference in the lives of patients who suffer from scleroderma,” says Feniger. “This event that Mary Sue and I dreamed up brings together some of our favorite things: delicious food, great wine, laughter and the opportunity to give back.” 

The Too Hot Tamales share this commitment to “give back” with fellow Top Chef Master Rick Moonen who says of the event, “A dear friend was recently diagnosed with scleroderma so, to collaborate with other passionate culinarians for this important cause is not just an honor, but a priority for me to contribute in any way I can.”

To reserve a table for Cool Comedy – Hot Cuisine and learn more about this lifesaving research-funding event, guests can call 1-800-441-2873 from 9 am - 5 pm, Monday through Friday, or visit www.srfcure.org.

Barrington Levy is one of the biggest stars to come out of Jamaica. Beginning his career with The Mighty Multitude in 1977, he quickly transitioned to being a popular dancehall performer by the age for 14.  By 16, he was recording with the Roots Radics and recorded several duets with Toyan, Jah Thomas and Trinity. Levy released four albums before 1980 including “Shaolin Temple,” “Bounty Hunter,” “Shine Eye Gal” (United Kingdom) and the critically-acclaimed “Englishman.” By the time his 1980 album “Robin Hood” was released, Levy was one of the biggest Jamaican stars, and saw his international fame growing as well, especially in the United Kingdom. Taking a break from albums in the early eighties, Levy then released a series of hit singles and toured the UK in 1984, where he enjoyed a big hit on the reggae charts with “Under Mi Sensi,” followed by the crossover hit “Here I Come,” which reached number 41 on the UK Singles Chart in 1985. He returned to LPs with “Lifestyle” and “Money Move.” Levy received the Best Vocalist prize at the British Reggae Awards in 1984. The late 1980s saw Levy, now in his twenties, slow down his recorded output, though he continued to perform and record regularly, and played at Sunsplash every year from 1987 to 1995.  In the 1990s, Levy continued to release periodic hits in Jamaica, and more rarely in the UK, although his vocals were sampled and used in many underground and released jungle tunes. In 1998, he released “Living Dangerously,” which included a collaboration with one of Jamaica's most prolific deejays Bounty Killerand with Snoop Dogg. The release was one of Levy's most successful since the start of the 1990s, and saw him finally achieve some success in the U.S. In 2004, he contributed to a track on the album White People by Handsome Boy Modeling School, a project by Prince Paul and Dan the Automator. He also collaborated with Slightly Stoopid on their 2005 album “Closer To The Sun.” In 2007 Levy made a guest appearance on the single "No Fuss" by Red-1 of the Rascalz. In September 2013 he released the single “Love the Way She Love,” a collaboration with Mr. Vegas, and announced an acoustic album featuring new songs and re-workings of old songs such as “Prison Oval Rock” and “Black Roses.”

Born Colin Harper in New Orleans, Collie Buddz was raised in his mother’s home country of Bermuda beginning at the age of four. It wasn't long before Buddz discovered more than his Bermudian heritage. By the age of 12, he quickly learned his way around a music studio and became apparent to everyone within earshot of the boy that his voice was unique in a way that lingers long after you've heard him. By the age of 19, he was attending Full Sail Academy in Orlando pursuing his own audio engineering degree that he received in a mere 13 months. With dreams of becoming a major music producer, Buddz joined his brother in Canada. As a producer, Buddz was the most comfortable in the studio. But he couldn't find any artists that could really pull off the sound he desired so Buddz far too often found himself just running back and forth from the vocal booth to the mixing booth as he layered his own vocals for his production work. After a while, it just became easier for him to just do it all by himself. At this juncture, Colin Harper became Collie Buddz. With his independent spirit guiding his journey, Buddz has traveled as far possible from his little corner of the earth. He's honed his craft while in support of several tours with artists such as Cypress Hill, Rebelution and Matisyahu. Buddz has performed in front of thousands at the largest music festivals such as Lollapalooza, Boomtown, Summer Jam and the California Roots Festival. Buddz’s release “Light It Up,” is a new anthem spreading across every college campus and radio stations, but the artist that created the tune has a name that may sound familiar to some music fans.

Son of veteran Reggae singer Jimmy Riley, Tarrus Riley was surrounding by music from an early age and his foray into music was inevitable. Making his recording debut as a teenager with 2004’s “Challenges,” he credits his success to simply “singing for the people.” Known for his ‘healing’ music, Riley released his sophomore album “Parables” in 2006. Riley has consistently racked up awards for his work including honors from the Youth View Awards, The Star People’s Choice Awards, EME Awards, and the Reggae Academy awards.  Riley is the proud holder of CVM’s 15th Anniversary Award from 2009 for the ‘Most Admired Song in the Past 15 Years’ for the hit, “She’s Royal.” In 2009 Riley released his third opus “Contagious on Cannon Production” which included the hits “Start Anew,” “Contagious,” “Good Girl Gone Bad” featuring Konshens and “Superman,” a cover of a Robin Thicke original. 2010 saw the release of the chart topper “Protect the People,” which scaled several charts in Jamaica and across the Caribbean. His performances have drawn credible reviews from the media in the Caribbean, North America, the United States and Europe. Riley’s most recent high profile performances include the 2011 Jamaica Jazz and Blues Festival, Reggae Sunfest 2010, Betty Wright and Friends in concert and the Palmyra Foundation’s Fundraising event.

Reggae in the Desert is presented by Frederic Apcar Productions. Sponsors include Miller Lite, Sailor Jerry, Las Vegas Review Journal and “Neon,” CW Las Vegas,  myLVTV. The VIP Lounge is sponsored by Bin 702.
