Born 1974, Yunnan, China, Liu Fang was a child prodigy on the pipa lute and the guzheng zither. A Shanghai Conservatory of Music graduate, winner of top prizes, Liu left China in 1993 for Berlin, then Montreal.

Since moving to Canada, Liu Fang has explored beyond Chinese classical pipa music, and collaborated with a slide guitarist from India, a cellist from Eastern Europe, a shakuhachi player from Japan, a zither player from Vietnam, an oud musician from the Middle East, and has recorded these multiculti collaborations with the Montreal-based Philmultic label.
