Both acts will set the scene nicely for the headline act Tim McGarry. Tickets are on sale now.
Blakes manager Mark Edwards is delighted at the line-up.
“It’s a great coup for us to get someone like Tim on stage here,” he said. “We’ve been building up our list of top class comedians to appear at Blakes and this is just the next step to ensure a top class night fun and laughter.”
