Event Description
One of Canada’s most acclaimed and much-loved singer-songwriters
Cara Luft
makes a long-anticipated return with a joyful solo album – her first in over 13 years.
The culmination of a period of upheaval and transformation, the album is Cara’s most assured and personal work to date. Cara's guiding principle was simple: to work with friends who embodied kindness, consideration and be generous of spirit.
From this ethos emerged the foundations of her new album and a trusted creative entourage she affectionately calls “the Quadrangle of Awesomeness": musician/singer/songwriter Clayton Parsons (Cranbrook, BC), session musician/producer Soctt Poley (Liverpool, UK) and engineer Julia Graff (Vancouver, BC).
Recorded over 12 days in Vancouver, Cara, Scott and Clayton sang and played nearly everything themselves – guitars, banjos, electric bass and pedal steel – making it an intimate and cathartic experience. It showcases Cara’s remarkable musicianship and uncanny ability to sing about personal
things
that resonate
deeply
with the listener without descending into navel-gazing.
“I want to create and offer a reflection of the human experience,” she explains.
The result,
My Heart Will Always B
e, is a tour de force.
The album
is both a personal declaration and a celebration of music’s enduring power
to heal, connect and bring joy.
Opportunities: These are available for al
l our shows. For a nominal co
st, indivi
duals or
businesses can sponsor any of our shows and reap a number of benefits - free tickets, reserved table, recognition on literature, our website and at the concerts. For more information, contact our
