Passages
Scott Johnson

The day after his father died from a long bout with cancer, songwriter Scott Johnson sat down to write a song for his dad. What came through was a song from his father. The song "Just A Heartbeat Away" and other original songs by Johnson are on the CD Passages, which is a celebration of life coming into the world and life passing on. This CD is perfect for anyone who has dealt with or is dealing with these kinds of passages--it lifts the spirit while decreasing the sense of aloneness. Visit his site at www.googolpress.com

 

Hopes & Dreams

Sick Humor: The Lighter Side of Illness
Carla Ulbrich

A better guitar player than most bologna sandwiches, the South Carolina native's whimsical songs are heard on numerous radio stations, including Sirius and XM radio and the syndicated shows "Bob and Sherrie in the Morning" and "The Dr. Demento Show."

In 2002, Carla suffered two 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. The result was her third CD, "Sick Humor" release in late 2004, featuring songs such as "What If Your Butt Was Gone," "Prednisone," "Sittin in the Waiting Room," and "On the commode Again."
