Events Description
Singer-songwriter pianist Jeffery Straker serves up a rootsy-storytelling brand of song that has been said to transport listeners – out onto a northern Canadian Lake or to the main street of a prairie town. With critical comparisons to the likes of Kris Kristofferson, Jackson Browne and Murray McLauchlan he’s twice been named ‘Roots-Folk Artist of the Year’ in Saskatchewan & has been honoured with a Western Canadian Music Award. The Saskatchewan Country Music Awards have named him ‘Keyboard Player of the Year’ 4 years running. Straker released his ninth recording “Great Big Sky” in 2024 – steeped with themes of the Canadian prairies. AmericanaUK praised it saying: “With emotional and sonic depth, Great Big Sky is an album we’d thoroughly recommend”. The album has gained Jeffery a nomination for a 2025 Canadian Folk Music Award.
“ He has a way of drawing us into his world and making us feel like we’re an old friend he’s ready to catch up with.”
