Will Stroet of Will's Jams is the ultimate star of kindie rock! A JUNO-, WCMA- and CFMA-nominated musician, CBC Kids, Universal Kids and Kidoodle TV star, educator and dad, he’s well loved for his original rock, folk, and blues music with witty wordplay and sing-along choruses. For more than a decade, Will's been entertaining kids through his bilingual music in English and French, inspiring them to be active, healthy, creative and engaged in the world.

While performing more than 2,000 shows across Canada and China for young audiences, he has garnered national recognition for his English and French albums: a 2017 JUNO nomination, six Western Canadian Music Award nominations, three from the Canadian Folk Music Awards and two from the Sirius XM Indies. Nominated for a 2020 CFMA, Will’s 10th album, “Rocks and Roots,” is a fun compilation of songs about trying new things and going on outdoor adventures. In 2015, UBC’s Faculty of Education honoured Will in their top 100 Alumni awards, along with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. 

This past fall, Will premiered his kids’ show with the 67-piece Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, and is actively working to bring this show to other orchestras across Canada.
