Welcome return to Scarborough after his great show in 2022.

Jeffery Straker grew up taking piano lessons in small-town Saskatchewan and has gone on to perform over 100 shows per year across Canada, Europe and Latin America. The rootsy-storytelling of his songs has the power to transport a listener ? out onto a lake in Canada?s North or to the main street of a prairie town. A clever lyricist with an energetic piano style, his song writing has drawn critical comparisons to the likes of Harry Chapin, Kris Kristofferson , Murray McLauchlan & Billy Joel, while maintaining a style distinctly his own. He?s recorded his music for CBC radio?s ?Canada Live?, has seen his songs used in film, TV and theatrical productions and in 2020 and 2021 was awarded ?Roots/Folk Artist of the Year? at the Saskatchewan Music Awards. In 2019 he received his first Western Canadian Music Award. The Saskatchewan Country Music Awards have named him ?Keyboard Player of the Year? 3 years running.
