MissoulaGives: Chris Fairbanks Thinks About Someone Else for a Change Description:
Chris Fairbanks is coming to us live from LA. Chris grew up in Missoula but currently resides in Los Angeles where his long ago open mic nights at the Old Post have paid off.

Contributions made here through the CheddarBoard go to our Stretch Fund, which benefit all participating nonprofits.
To contribute directly to a specific nonprofit, head over to MissoulaGives.org.

His fast-paced, quirky, and consistently improvised act has been showcased on Comedy Central’s “Featuring”, “Conan”, “Last Comic Standing”, and “Jimmy Kimmel Live”.For TruTV, Chris was the host of “Almost Genius”, and director as well as cast member for “World’s Dumbest”. He’s been featured on @midnight, Fox TV’s Punchline, HBO’s ‘Crashing’, Amazon’s ‘One Mississippi’, Comedy Central’s ‘Corporate’ and the film ‘Punching Henry’ starring JK Simmons.

Chris’ comedy album, “Fairbanks!” was named one of Amazon MP3’s Top Ten. He also hosts the popular podcast, “Do You Need a Ride”, with “My Favorite Murder” host Karen Kilgariff, for her Exactly Right network. On it, they shuttle their guests to or from the airport, somewhat dangerously, in a ’08 Honda Accord mobile sound studio.

Chris is also self-employed as a freelance artist, illustrating
for magazines, skateboards, album covers, etc.
