Bicoastal entertainer Carly Ozard, a lifelong musical theater enthusiast, is proud to be releasing her new CD Chain of Love (A Broadway Album) - Ozard’s newest that celebrates the singer’s deep love for showtunes - from classics, unknowns, and fiascos. Featuring rarely-heard gems like "Chain of Love" from The Grass Harp (a 1971 musical that ran just 7 performances based on Truman Capote’s novel), the album showcases works by legendary composers including Kander and Ebb, Stephen Sondheim, Jerry Herman, Irving Berlin, and Charles Strouse. A number of songs are reimagined with new arrangements by Ozard herself. Each track is paired with personal stories from her life in NY and San Francisco, including encounters with Broadway stars and casting directors. The album (produced by Leo Frappier), also highlights vocal talents from the Bay Area’s Lamplighters Music Theater (now in its 78th year performing Gilbert & Sullivan titles) in duets, trios, and including a full ensemble number. It's a heartfelt tribute to musical theater and an invitation to become a link in the "Chain of Love."

Show length: approximately 70 minutes (no intermission).
CDs will be available for purchase — both physical and downloadable.

I am a big-hearted believer in the transformative power of music and art. My mission on this earth is to create opportunities that bring joy and inspiration. Whether I’m songwriting, consulting on someone else's voice, performing Gilbert and Sullivan, or bringing a one-person show to life, I embrace every chance to connect through creativity.

Stay tuned for updates on my upcoming Broadway album, "Chain of Love," featuring the incredible talent of the Lamplighters, and join me for new performances throughout the year!

“The most resounding musical pleasures, though, came from contralto Carly Ozard, whose singing as the dauntingly maternal Doña Hannah rolled forth like sleek, well-tuned thunder.”

– Joshua Kosman, San Francisco Chronicle Datebook

“With Carly Ozard showing up to perform .... San Francisco is still fabulous. ”

— Willie Brown, Former Mayor of San Franciscoote Source

"With a gloriously gargantuan voice, plus energy and heart in substantial supply, Carly Ozard doesn’t hold back or back off from the challenge of tackling a wide range of musical theatre styles and character types in "Chain of Love: A Broadway Album."

– Rob Lester - Stageandcinema.com

"Most of the treatments loyally honor the repertoire’s musical theatre roots, rather than overly personalizing (reinventing, revamping, revising, revisiting) songs to tailor them to a consistent, more narrow real-life persona. Being so comfortably true to the origins and characters makes it the musical equivalent of a kid let loose in a costume warehouse, allowed to wear any eye-catching garb, confident it will fit, lying on the strong material, with perhaps the help of some elastic or a belt. And, oh what an elastic voice and oh, what a belt this performer has with the strong material that was chosen!"

"It’s not that Carly Ozard needs the help of these folks billed as “Friends,” being, of course, a formidable force of nature as a soloist. For earthy qualities, the lower register of the voice is the most satisfyingly resonant and rich, but some things, such as the recording’s title-referenced “Chain of Love” from The Grass Harp are keyed closer to the soprano stratosphere.'

"While much here is intensely or immensely earnest, Irving Berlin’s cute creation “Falling Out of Love Can Be Fun” is a welcome change of pace and is indeed fun, serving as respite from the parade of pow. While the recording is quite the showcase of show stopping show tunes showing versatility galore, even more evidence of the dynamo’s range can be found in live performances posted on the Youtube channel — everything from pop to EDM to Gilbert & Sullivan to rock – and more. Is there anything this interestingly intrepid musical adventurer can’t do?"
