In 2009, James Junes and Ernest David Tsosie teamed up with fellow entertainers, Pax Harvey and Tatanka Means, to form 49 Laughs Comedy. The crew went on the road and was an instant hit. In 2010 in Farmington, New Mexico, Adrianne Chalepah opened for the show. Months later, she officially joined the crew on tour. With sold-out venues, the stand-up comedy show became a favorite in casinos, colleges, tribal events, conferences, and festivals. Today, the troupe continues to perform with all five original members. The team represents family, humor, and healing.
