Laura Smith and troubadour Jay Aymar return for their now-annual co-headlining gig at The Carleton on Thursday, May 18th.  This special early show will start at 7:30 PM. Tickets are $25.

Laura Smith has one of the most distinctive – and beautiful – voices we’ve ever heard and we don’t often get the opportunity to see her perform these days. Her previous shows at The Carleton have sold out so we urge you to get your tickets NOW to avoid disappointment.

Jay Aymar‘s been described as a Canadian everyman, because he gets his songs from the people he meets, and they are as complicated — and simple — as the drifter in the tap room, the traveler in the bus station and the school teacher at Starbucks. He gets ideas from movies, great books and trash novels, and tunes he hears on the radio as the station fades between Manitoba and Saskatchewan. The winners and losers and lovers and fighters all contribute their voices, adding the details as well as the big ideas. In short, he’s an honest-to-goodness troubadour and as entertaining as they come.
