Carla Ulbrich  Carla Ulbrich is an American singer-songwriter, guitarist, author, and self-described "professional smart aleck" from Clemson, South Carolina. Humorous songwriter Carla Ulbrich started out at age 9 as a classical guitarist, inspired by her aunt, Pat Brothwell, who was pursuing a degree in classical guitar at the time. Carla started writing songs in college (when she was supposed to be practicing "real" music). Despite the distractions, Ulbrich received an AFA in music from Brevard College and a BA in Music from UNC-Greensboro. Having many parody or novelty songs in her repertoire (such as "Duet with a Klingon" based on "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off", with a Klingon taking the male lead), she is featured regularly on the "Dr. Demento" Radio Show and XM radio, and has also appeared on USA, WGN, WVIA and PAX TV, as well as Sirius radio, the BBC, and numerous NPR affiliates. She has won numerous songwriting awards, including "Novelty Song of the Year" in 2006 from the Just Plain Folks awards for her piece "What If Your Butt was Gone?", a rewrite of her earlier song "What If Your Girlfriend was Gone?" Many of her pieces are of a humorous nature, reflecting on human life. A self-proclaimed ambassador for forgotten song topics, she has written songs about unappreciated elements, such as "The Guy Who Changes the Lightbulbs (Changes Everything)", "Nothing to Say", "Prednisone", and "The Wedgie". Her 2004 album "Sick Humor" deals with Carla's real-life recovery from multiple strokes and kidney failure she suffered in 2002. This collection of songs has led to appearances at The Alaska Palliative Care conference, Medicaid, the Association of Applied and Therapeutic Humor, the Society for Arts in Healthcare, and other medical gatherings. Her song "If I Had the Copyright" was featured in the 2006 documentary "Fuck", directed by Steve Anderson. Touring since about 1997, Carla has performed in England, Canada, and much of the US (including Alaska), appearing at venues small and large. She has graced the stages of the Bluebird Cafe, Eddie's Attic, the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, Florida Folk Festival, South Florida Folk Festival, Wildflower! Arts and Music Festival, Kerrville Folk Festival, Avalon Nude Folk Festival, DragonCon, MarsCon, FenCon (and numerous other science fiction and/or filk conventions), various colleges, a few comedy clubs, private and corporate parties, nursing, patient and caregiver conventions, a few unusual weddings, and the Chet Atkins Appreciation Society Convention.
