Karli June is a powerful new voice in Canadian country music — a passionate artist whose heartfelt songwriting, soaring vocals, and magnetic stage presence are carving out a space all her own. Rooted in the small-town charm of rural Listowel, Ontario, Karli's music blends the values of her farm upbringing with a modern country sound full of honesty, warmth, and drive.
Her breakout momentum continues into 2025 with a performance at Boots and Hearts this summer and the upcoming release of her sophomore EP. The new project follows a banner run that includes multiple major accolades and radio hits. Her latest single, “Always Gonna Be,” recently landed another Top 20 on Australian country radio, building on her growing international fanbase. The breezy anthem — co-written and produced by Gavin Slate (The Reklaws, Jade Eagleson) — captures the enduring nature of love and country living, wrapped in banjo tones and Karli’s trademark heartfelt delivery.
Karli first turned heads with her duet “Feel Like Home” featuring Ryan Langdon — a standout track that cracked the Top 30 in Canada, soared to #12 in Australia, and was honored as a Rogers Radio One to Watch, iHeartRadio Future Star, and Stingray Trending Track. The song became the most-added track at Canadian country radio upon its release and has earned nearly half a million streams and views to date.
She followed that success with the smoldering, fan-favorite “Still Make Cowgirls”, which went all the way to #1 on SiriusXM’s “Top of the Country” and solidified her status as an artist on the rise. With over 2.7 million combined streams and views, Karli's catalogue continues to resonate deeply with listeners.
On stage, Karli brings undeniable energy and connection to every performance, with recent highlights including appearances at Country Thunder Calgary, Ponoka Stampede, and a spotlight at CCMA Country Music Week in Hamilton. In 2023, her debut EP — produced by Karen Kosowski (who won CMAO’s Producer of the Year for the project) — introduced Karli as a fresh and fearless songwriter with something to say.
With more new music on the horizon and a growing list of accolades behind her, Karli June is just getting started. Keep an eye out — because the best is yet to come.
