The Carrot Friday Nite Live presents Darian King | Jan Baker [Double Bill]

Darian King

Darian King is a singer/songwriter originally from the south east corner of Saskatchewan where Treaty 4 meets Treaty 2, Darian is a proud Métis two-spirit person who began teaching themselves guitar at a young age and started writing their own songs at 15, now many years later they feel songwriting has became their greatest outlet of expression. Indigenous and queer, seeking refuge in a sea of sad little acoustic songs. Since Darian grew up in such a small town as a queer person they never felt like they fit in, Darian is always just trying to create a space where we can all belong together.

Jan Baker

You might think that the clarity and ease with which Jan portrays her message in song comes naturally; it is a gift but Jan has perfected her style through years of training, starting at the age of 13 with private vocal lessons. At the age of 16, Jan was fronting folk groups and singing backup on television specials and at recording studios. Midlife saw Jan performing with Edmonton Musical Theatre and Caviar Drama Players. Jan released her first CD “IN GOOD TIME” in 2007. Family life has always taken precedent in Jan’s life and after some major life incidents in 2007, it has been family first, music second. You may be lucky to catch Jan performing in various group configurations at a folk club or festival, Christmas party or even a coffee shop. Don’t miss out!
