Jory Nash (Jor-ee Nash) is an award-winning Canadian singer-songwriter and storyteller whose music blends folk, jazz, blues, pop, and soul. He has released nine acclaimed albums, with The Many Hats of Jory Nash earning two 2015 Canadian Folk Music Award nominations, and New Blue Day named Penguin Eggs Magazine Critic’s Choice Album of the Year.

After stepping away from music in 2019 due to depression and financial struggles, Nash returns in 2025 with his 10th album, The Light Still Shines On The Main, co-produced with Chris Stringer. The road back was marked by profound challenges, including his partner Brittany’s cancer diagnosis in 2021, a house fire, and a family move to Cobourg, ON.

“This album is about coming through the darkness,” says Nash. “It’s about hope, resilience, loss, and finding beauty in new beginnings.”

His warm, distinctive voice and intricate songwriting have earned him loyal audiences across Canada, the U.S., and abroad.
