BIO
--2025 Canadian Folk Music Awards Contemporary Folk Singer of the Year--
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 hes twice been named 'Roots-Folk Artist of the Year' in the Saskatchewan Music Awards & has been honoured with a Western Canadian Music Award. The Sask. 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 wed thoroughly recommend. The album saw Jeffery win a 2025 Canadian Folk Music Award for Contemporary Canadian Folk Singer of the Year.

CKUA broadcaster Alison Brock has said: I must admit to being a latecomer to the Jeffery Straker party, but like all good parties once youre there youre really glad you came, and you sure dont want to leave. Some very unexpected praise recently came in the form of royal recognition from His Majesty King Charles III who was moved by a song on Jefferys new album (penned for the 2023 Coronation celebration in Saskatchewan). The Kings message about the song and well-wishes for Strakers UK tour made national news across Canada.

Proud of his prairie roots, Jeffery debuted his album Great Big Sky with a series of unique performances in grain elevators across Saskatchewan. He followed that up with performances throughout Canada, in Nashville Tennessee, the UK and Ireland. Continuing to reach audiences in unique ways, last fall Jeffery was selected by CBCs The Current to perform in a live national radio broadcast sharing songs from the recording. Hes also been chosen to represent Canada in a week-long residency performing in Osaka Japan at Expo 2025.
Wherever he performs his audience connections are stand-out as described by CBC Radio who said: He has a way of drawing us into his world and making us feel like were an old friend hes ready to catch up with.

QUOTES:
CBC Radio (on Jefferys live shows):
He has a way of drawing us into his world and making us feel like were an old friend hes ready to catch up with.

CKUA Host Allison Brock:
I must admit to being quite the latecomer to the Jeffery Straker party, but like all good parties, once youre there youre really glad you came, and you sure dont want to leave.

AmericanaUK (album review):
...the playing and the arrangements recall early Warren Zevon and Jackson Browne...rolling, fluent piano & heartfelt vocals...emotional and sonic depth...Great Big Sky is an album we'd thoroughly recommend"
