Born and raised in the sleepy streets of Spokane, Washington Karli Fairbanks has been a well-known presence in the local music scene for the last three years, collaborating widely and playing alongside some of the talented and increasingly successful young musicians who are putting Spokane back on the music radar. Switching easily from guitar to melancholy piano ballads, accordion and delicately strummed banjo Karli Fairbanks is equally comfortable playing stripped down acoustic sets or taking lead on a crowded stage as she sings alongside some of the incredible musicians she calls collaborators and friends.
“Fairbanks is a songstress extraordinaire in part because of the elastic, enduring quality of her vocal cords.”

““On Bitter Blue, Fairbanks is nearly perfect, and in turn produces one of Spokane’s most promising albums in quite some time.””
