ISMO is often called “the most insightful comic in Finland.” Now a resident in the United States, he continues to be the ultimate observer of culture and master of word-play. His sharp writing and uniquely hilarious delivery create quick fans among diverse audiences. No matter where you are in the world, ISMO has an undeniable ability to make people see familiar cultural norms in an entirely new way!
ISMO’s WOO HOO! WORLD TOUR kicks off in Australia and New Zealand in November 2024 and will expand across the U.S., Europe, Canada, and beyond in 2025. He was the first Finnish comedian to perform on CONAN, and the clip of his performance has become one of the most viewed late-night sets with over 135 million views! His debut on The Late Late Show with James Corden also garnered significant attention, leading to overwhelming success and substantial growth on social media.
ISMO has toured almost non-stop, performing sold-out shows in clubs and theatres internationally. He attracted big fans such as Gabriel Iglesias, who invited ISMO to open for his special at Dodger Stadium in front of 60,000 fans. Later in 2023, ISMO opened for Gabriel at the 02 Arena in London. He went on to sell out his own European tour, adding a second show in each city, with plans for a larger-scale return in 2025.
