Overview
CARBONLILY has been bringing FRESH acoustic since 2008! With roots in R&B, Alternative Rock and Early Jazz- It's no wonder people are raving about her unique sound!
Did she really just play Alanis Morsette, Marvin Gaye AND Coldplay in one set? That’s right! You’ll be pleasantly surprised by the energy, talent and professionalism of CARBONLILY.
Whatever your unique event needs, allow CARBONLILY to put together the perfect sound and atmosphere for you and your guest!

Carbonlily was truly phenomenal for so many reasons. We were planning a Grand Opening party for 400+ people and needed some wonderful musicians to make the night spectacular. The music and sound is unmatched. They are quality musicians, who are incredibly professional. There was always clear and quick communication (which was truly amazing because we changed things on our end a thousand times) Carla was always responsive, kind and understanding. Working with Carbonlily was such a pleasure and I will definitely look forward to booking them in the future. They will bring a beautiful sound and presence to your event!

Carla has an amazing voice and she and her band are incredible musicians. They performed during cocktail hour and dinner at our wedding reception and made the night. All of our guests loved them - can’t recommend them highly enough.

Thanks for having me! You guys have a fun group of individuals!
Carbonlily performed at our Hot Air Balloon Festival this weekend. She and her partner were a great hit and provided exactly the right mood we were looking for. We will definitely have them back next year (hopefully with her full band!).

Thank you for the wonderful review! We had some much fun!
Carla was wonderful in every way. She was exactly the performer that I was looking for for my surprise engagement party. She was able to learn and perform a requested song with very short notice, flawlessly. She was incredibly friendly, helpful, and flexible with me. I had to reschedule at one point, and she was very flexible and understanding. She talked with me one on one for feedback regarding the requested song because she is detail oriented and wanted to provide the best performance possible. She was in close communication with me the whole way through, and she was always available if i had questions. She also has an impressively wide repertoire of music genres and songs. There are not enough good things that I can say about her and the work she does. Look no further if you are looking for someone to perform for your private event. I will absolutely be requesting her again for my upcoming wedding (the proposal went well!) Unfortunately, I do not remember the name of the other band mate that she brought with her, but he was also very friendly and skilled as well.

Thank You!
Carla performed for a networking happy hour that we hosted at one of our senior living communities; her sound was soft, unique, and beautiful-- perfect to set the tone, provide entertainment, but still allow for conversation to be had. Both our residents and professional guests enjoyed her presence.

Much appreciation for inviting us to be apart of your event!
Carbonlily provided music for my marriage proposal in San Antonio. She is a true professional that was courteous, prompt, and pleasant in every aspect. Carbonlily was able to provide the perfect musical backdrop for this event and I could not have asked for more. Her voice was exactly what I had envisioned for this event. 5 stars all the way around!

Booking Info
Price Range: $2000 and up
Gig Length: 30 - 300 minutes
Languages: English
What to Expect
Our sets usually range from 1-4 hours Max, but we have been known to do 4-5 hour gigs. If a gig last longer than 3 hours, we ask that a small to light meal be provided. We also plan on 15 min breaks after every 45 min of playing time. *Music can be played on our sound system during these breaks so as not to interfere with the mood.
We are a perfect, I repeat, PERFECT cocktail hour group. Depending on your needs, we can be the main attraction or just simply background music. We do both very well!
We have all of our own music and sound equipment.
It's important to note we are NOT a request cover band. Meaning, the artist comes with a specific set list that compliments both her voice and musical playing style. If you are looking for a specific song to be played, this request must be made @ least 2 weeks before the event so the artist can determine whether or not she can perform the song with due diligence.
Set up and break down typically takes no more than 30 min. before and after.
*Please inquire if you have additional questions*
About
Hello!
Thanks for stopping by!
My name is Carla and I've been playing guitar and singing for over 15 years.
My day job; although I would love to do this full time, is a Licensed Clinical Therapist. When I'm not helping others, I practice self-care by playing music. Second, I LOVE the outdoors and will take the opportunity to go for a hike at a moment’s notice. I have 2 beautiful boys and a life partner with whom I share my heart.
Hopeful for the opportunity to share my gift with you!
Much Love,
Carla
