Cara Luft

Multi award-winning singer-songwriter-musician Cara Luft is that rare artist steeped in folk and traditional roots music almost from birth, yet willing to alter the fabric, stretch the boundaries, and fearlessly bend genres and styles. A founding member of Canadian folk super-group The Wailin’ Jennys and the brainchild behind Winnipeg’s acclaimed powerhouse duo The Small Glories, Luft deserves her solid reputation as one of Canada’s finest live performers, armed with amazing tenacity, vision, energy, and a contagious hilarity. Cara has a spirit that drives her to connect with people, and for this she is loved everywhere she goes. She’s the real deal, there’s nothing pretentious about her. And that sense of honesty, integrity, personality, and spontaneity permeates both her music and her live shows.
