Aselin Debison
The Littlest Angel
Despite her young age, Aselin Debison is already a singer who is a part of history. Five years ago, at the age of 9, Deibson galvanized a coal miners' protest in Cape Breton in her native Nova Scotia, singing the local anthem "The island" with such touching simplicyt that thousands of angry striking miners wept, joined hands and sang along. Wod of the young singer's dramatic performance and of her hanting voice spread quickly, and she became a sensation in Nova Scotia and throughout Canada. From the cheering crowds at the 2000 Canada Day celbration in Ottawa to the release of this Christmas recording in 2001, Aselin Debison has emerged as perhaps the fastest-rising star in Canadian music. After signing an exclusive contract to record for Sony Music Canada, the young singer set her sights on attracting an international audience.

Mummer's Song
Bud Davidge with Ian Wallace
On a cold, clear Newfoundland
night shortly after Christmas, several outlandishly costumed

joking and tomfoolery, raucous singing and exuberant dancing.
Granny and her two young charges are instantly caught up in the
merriment. When the evening's festivities come to a close, the
mummers are bid a fond farewell until next year.

Have
Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
John Gracie
John Gracie began singing before
he was speaking! His mother would often find him behind the coal
stove singing his little heart out. He thought if you couldn't see
him, you couldn't hear him. John's mother knew John had a special
gift and sent him to vocal lessons when he turned 4. John
went on to perform as a teenager in local events and on local
radio. He taught himself to play the guitar and wrote
continuously. In unversity, he performed and hosted
intercollegiate folk festivals and was a favourite on the college
circuit. After university, he started to perform professionally.
