I have worked all over the world with stars like Liza Minnelli and Tony Bennett (among others) and can honestly say that Gunhild is unlike anyone I’ve seen in my over forty years in show business. Gunhild Carling captivates an audience in a way I’ve never seen and her talent is worthy of much wider recognition in the United States.” Billy Stritch Piano player, singer New York
“Gunhild Carling inspired me to paint a mural about her because I see her as a positive influence for women of all ages, she is a talented multi-instrumentalist, a successful entrepreneur and a very kind person.

This mural is in the US Bank tower in downtown LA the tallest building in all of California.” Paloma Arciniegamural painter Los Angeles
