Carly Stock Makes Waves

Saxophonist, vocalist, bandleader, and music industry powerhouse Carly Stock has been a staple performer in the Los Angeles music scene for over a decade. Since graduating from the internationally acclaimed jazz studies program at the University of North Texas (‘23) where she played in the seven-time Grammy nominated One O’Clock Lab Band, Carly has since performed and toured with numerous artists including Jay Leno, Blake Lewis (American Idol), Les Greene (Tiny Desk Contest), Jens Lindemann (Canadian Brass), Olivia Kuper Harris (The Voice), Adrian Younge (Jazz Is Dead), and many more at festivals and venues across the country. When she’s not on the road, Carly frequently plays at Disneyland California Adventure Park with Phat Cat Swinger, at the OC Fair with Red Light Brass Band, at South Point Hotel and Casino (Las Vegas), and luxury weddings and events across southern California.

Carly’s sound is rooted in funk, jazz, and the blues, and she’s best known for her iconic bright and soulful tone while playing. Her band, FULL-THROTTLE FUNK, showcases her skills on both sax and as a lead vocalist, playing the funk, rock, pop, and americana she grew up listening to. Her band has been featured on stages across Los Angeles such as the OC Fair Main Hangar Stage, with Next Fest LA, and Sounds of LA County, and is represented by talent agency LA Music Booking.

Carly also leads an all-female jazz trio (sax/vocals, keyboard, and upright bass) available for parties, corporate events, weddings, and more.

In addition to performance, Carly is an avid social media content creator and brand representative. Carly has collaborated with iconic music brands such as Conn-Selmer, BetterSax, and NUX as an on-roster artist, showcasing their products in person and on Instagram. As brand ambassador, she creates meaningful content highlighting musical instruments/gear, fashion, and make-up in her famed “Gig Fits” before every show.
