There is a bright new star on the comedy scene! Her name is Karinda Dobbins and her debut album, Black and Blue, is out Februarury 4th!
Wanda Sykes has called her a bright star to watch, and Bitch Magazine named her one of the "six comediennes you don't know yet-- but you should." She has opened for Dave Chappelle, Trevor Noah, Michelle Wolf, Roy Woods, Gina Yashere and Arsenio Hall. She is a vetran performer at many of the Bay Area's comedy clubs.
Karinda was born and raised in Detroit, where she got her start being a comedian, as her family says, since childhood. She started doing jokes on stage 12 years ago at an open mic in Oakland on a light dare from a friend, and has been honing her craft ever since. Black & Blue is a strong collection of that work, delivered in a unique moment, covering ordinary life including her girlfriend’s arbitrary policy on household pests, the changes hipsters have brought to Oakland, and a unique packing list for hiking provided by black women - who you should always listen to.
With co-host Brody Levesque
