He’s been writing his own music for almost 20 years, but since moving from Moncton to Montreal he’s become one of this city’s most sought-after musical partners, collaborating with Lhasa, Patrick Watson, Elisapie and the Barr Brothers—as well as working with his avant-pop band, Klaus.

Jeffery Straker
Singer-songwriter pianist Jeffery Straker grew up taking piano lessons in small-town Saskatchewan and has goneon to perform over 100 shows per year across Canada, Europe and Latin America. Blending classically trained confidence with a storyteller’s intimacy, his rootsy thought-provoking songs have 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 approach to the piano, his song writing has drawn critical comparisons to the likes of Harry Chapin, Kris Kristofferson & Murray Mclauchlan while maintaining a style distinctly his own.
