DESCRIPTION:
Award-winning songwriter and comedienne Carla Ulbrich sings and jokes about everything from waiting rooms to Klingons to toasted chicken sandwiches.Witty, cheery and very personable, Carla always finds a couple of opportunities in a show for 'volunteers' to come 'help her sing' up on stage (and look a little silly in front of their peers). For company parties, Carla gets info about the employees and works it into the show. Carla is frequently heard on XM radio, the BBC, Dr. Demento and Sirius Radio and has been compared to the likes of Weird Al, Chet Atkins and Arlo Guthrie. She has released 3 CDs of her mostly clean (no cuss words) humor: Her Fabulous Debut (1999), Professional Smart Aleck (2003) and Sick Humor (2004). Her 'general humor' songs cover such socially relevant topics as dating for food, the Guinness Book of Records, and a duet with a Klingon. Her medical songs include 'What If Your butt Was Gone.' This song won the 2006 Just Plain Folks Novelty song of the Year Award and is also a past winner of the South Florida Folk Festival National Song Competition. One of her songs is featured in a documentary, released Nov. 2006 to movie theaters. In 2002, Carla suffered two small strokes and kidney failure. Undeterred, she re-learned the guitar from scratch that year, spending her many hours in doctors' waiting rooms penning funny parodies about her malady and the absurdity of the health care system. These are the songs on her most recent CD, 'Sick Humor.' Oddly enough, Carla seems to have found a special niche as a result of her health history: helping people find humor in the stressful and often tragic worlds of illness and health care. Her specialty is singing to caregivers (nurses, staff, hospice workers, chaplains, music therapists). Carla tours all over the US and UK (and sometiems Canada), appearing at various listening venues, festivals including Kerrville and Falcon Ridge, medical and nursing conventions, holiday parties, awards banquets, concert series, comedy clubs, colleges, numerous radio stations, as well as spots on USA's Up All Night and PAX TV. The act can be tailored to your needs (medical humor/ general humor/ rated G, PG, PG-13, or a little bit R), depending on your audience's expectations and comfort zone.

CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Carla was fantastic. The entire process from booking to event completion was very easy. Carla was prompt, prepared and very entertaining. She managed to work into her act, specific information about us that made the performance much more personal. I would recommend Carla to anybody in need of professional, quality entertainment.

Carla is AWESOME! She was the highlight of our corporate event, and had our entire staff laughing with tears rolling down our cheeks. She performed for a group of medical professionals, and with her extensive background as a "professional" patient, her hysterical songs and stories fit us perfectly. She's bubbly, outgoing and witty! With an emphatic YES, we would recommend Carla Ulbrich for any occassion.

Carla was great! She was perfect for the audience we had to entertain. (The audience was in-home caregivers.) It is perfect that she could relate to our audience and she truelly shower her appreciation for what the audience did every day. I would definitly use Carla again and especially refer her to others.
