Zachary Lucky is a Canadian songwriter celebrated for his timeless blend of folk, country, and roots music. Hailing from the prairie province of Saskatchewan, Lucky crafts songs steeped in place, memory, and the quiet resilience of everyday life. His warm baritone voice and evocative storytelling have drawn comparisons to Gordon Lightfoot and Kris Kristofferson, while his authenticity and dedication have earned him a loyal following across Canada and the world over.
The grandson of Canadian country music pioneer Smilin’ Johnnie Lucky, Zachary continues the family legacy that proves the apple truly doesn’t fall far from the tree. For more than 15 years, he has built a reputation as one of the hardest-working independent songwriters in Canada’s folk and roots scene, often performing well over a hundred shows each year. A seasoned road veteran, in 2024 and 2025 alone Lucky toured extensively across Canada, completed two European tours (Ireland, the UK, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany), a run of dates in Japan, and a 35-date coast-to-coast tour of the United States.
Zachary has also performed at countless festivals across Canada and across Europe including Rambling Roots (Utrecht, Netherlands), Static Roots Festival (Essen, Germany), The Maripsoa Folk Festival, The Canmore Folk Festival, Regina Folk Festival, Northern Lights Festival Boreal, The Mission Folk Festival, Live From The Rock, Trout Forest Music Festival, Dawson City Music Festival, Northern Lights Bluegrass festival, Peterborough Folk Festival, Ness Creek Music Festival, Big Flat Folk Festival and has been an official showcasing artist at Folk Alliance International on three separate occasions.
