Raymond Orta is a La Joya-born stand-up — Rio Grande Valley timing, bilingual punchlines, impressions and sound effects that fill a room before the first drink lands. He started telling jokes at eight. The Valley knew him first. South Padre kept him.

Cranked Up Records signed him because comedy this loud belongs next to the bands, not in a side tent. He is special.
