Jeffery Straker and Carrie Day In Concert

Singer-songwriter-pianist Jeffery Straker performs over 100 shows per year across Canada. He has recorded for CBC radio’s ‘Canada Live’, had a music video chart in the top 10 on Much More Music Canada, and has toured internationally as far as Peru, Mexico, and Chile. His tour stops range from house concerts to club and theatre shows, and include sold-out concerts with several Canadian symphony orchestras, performing his own songs. Canada Musician Magazine has said “Very much an artist to watch,” while the Chicago Free Press has written, “Rufus Wainwright, as well as k.d. lang are among the Canadians making essential and beautiful music. Add the name Jeffery Straker to that list.” Carrie Day is an Edmonton based folk/root singer-songwriter who has gained a music reputation for her breathy vocals, poetic lyrics and skilled arrangements that channel raw emotion straight to the listener’s heart. With a style of her own, Carrie’s sound may be described as a cross between Joni Mitchell and Cat Power. She is an emotionally charged artist with an exuberant stage presence, and a keen ability to capture listeners and warm their hearts. Carrie has been featured in local, national and international print. Her first video “A Glimpse of Heaven” was nominated for a 2012 Alberta Film and Television Award, and Day was also nominated for the 2014 Edmonton Music Awards Female Artist of the year.
