Stay up late with us for LBC Fest’s Treasure State Comedy Showcase featuring two Montana comics, and one of our headliners, Chris Fairbanks! Chris Fairbanks has delighted audiences for more than two decades in comedy clubs across the country and on Comedy Central, TruTV, TBS, Fox and Amazon. Originally from Montana, Fairbanks found his way down to Austin and launched his comedy career, then moved to Los Angeles where he can be found skateboarding on a recently-replaced hip, or recording his popular podcast Do You Need A Ride?! co-hosted by Karen Kilgariff. His latest release The Rescue Cactus Album is available everywhere on 800 Pound Gorilla Records. Alex Speed was recently voted the third funniest human being in the state of Montana. He has told jokes all over the country, performing with everyone from SNL cast members to that drunk guy you wish would stop talking. Aubrey Juden is a stand up comedian based in Missoula, MT. She’s been performing original, creative, at times traumatic material for a two years. You can catch her hosting a monthly open mic at the Badlander in Missoula.
