(NASHVILLE, Tenn.) Jan. 4, 2011—Jim Labriola, best known for his role as Benny Baroni on ABC’s hit comedy “Home Improvement,” has signed to Nashville-based label Transform Music Group. Labriola will release his latest comedy CD, Heart Improvement, in March.
A favorite on the comedy club scene, guest star on multiple network sitcoms, and with motion picture appearances including Disney’s “The Santa Clause,” Labriola boasts a prolific career. In 1999, he dedicated his life to Christ and now travels nationally performing for churches as well as charity events, while speaking at business meetings and motivational seminars. Most recently he toured the country aboard the Tea Party Express alongside such notable figures as former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.
Labriola’s latest appointment is as Transform Music Group’s first comedy artist. Transform Music Group CEO Matt Rogers comments, “Adding Jim Labriola to Transform is an honor. He has an amazing gift of bringing laughter to the masses during a time when people need to laugh. I couldn't be more proud to welcome him to the Transform family.”
Labriola’s first CD release in more than 6 years, Heart Improvement will feature comedy bits about everyday life experiences, including heart attacks, what it was like going to church before he became a believer, and growing up in an Italian family. Distributed via CLG Distribution, the project will be in stores nationwide March 22, 2011. Additional details are forthcoming.
