Biography
Judy’s Christmas song, “A Southern California Christmas Carol” is her ode to Christmas in SoCal. She spent years as an East Coast resident and thought of Christmas as the time to check the wind-chill factor, dig her car out of the snow, navigate slushy NYC corners and find the perfect pair of winter boots. When she moved to SoCal, though, everything changed. In “A Southern California Christmas Carol,” Judy gives us a picture of “Xmas-time in South CA.”

Judy started singing at a young age while swinging on her backyard swings -- much to the annoyance of the neighbors. And, when she was in the 3rd grade, Judy was the only one in her class to not back out of the classroom talent show. She came in second.

Judy's sung in musicals, on commercials, on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno (with and without Jim Carrey), with Fred Willard, Marty Stuart and for the legendary Mike Stoller when she sang the lead in the Broadway workshops of his show "The People in the Picture." But, Judy's talents truly burst forth when she entered the world of improvisation and discovered she could instantly make up songs in various genres from audience suggestions.

One day, years later, Judy found a blank notebook and a No. 2 pencil that was actually sharp. She started writing down her songs and "Variety Pak" was born.

Influenced by so many different artists and styles, as well as her life in the comedic world, Judy decided to cook up something using her mother’s recipe – “a little o’ dis a little o’ dat.” And, dat…uh, that’s why her record has so many different genres, from country to metal to Beach Boys to Patsy Cline to bluegrass to Frankie Yankovic to punk rock to the Andrews sisters.

Enjoy the smorgasbord of comedy and "songs in the key of fun."
