Coast 2 Coast Closeup – Karli June

Karli June has a clear vision of what she wants to say and how she wants to say it. Writing candidly and honestly is a hallmark of her songwriting past and present. Karli fell in love with music as a child, singing in her church’s choir and local fairs and singing competitions. During her teens she began writing songs in earnest, studied piano, taught herself guitar, and took every opportunity she had to perform live during school concerts, in musical theatre productions and at the local pub.

In 2016 she released two singles, both produced by CCMA Award winning producer/guitarist Jason Barry, ‘Black & White’ and ‘Setting Me on Fire’, which garnered June attention leading to her performing at marquee Canadian country music festivals like Boots & Hearts, and share the stage with the likes of Dierks Bentley, Brett Kissell, Terri Clark and Corb Lund.

Karli June is currently in the studio with A&R veteran Fraser Hill (James Barker Band, Wes Mack , One More Girl, Serena Ryder) working on her debut EP.

As Karli continues to work hard at her first love, her style and brand has formulated into her own – and has found its place in pop country music. Her debut EP will be released in the first quarter of 2022 and there is no doubt the best is yet to come.
