 Despite her young age, Aselin Debison is already a singer who is a part of history. Five years ago, at the age of 9, Debison galvanized a coal miners' protest in Cape Breton in her native Nova Scotia, singing the local anthem "The Island" with such touching simplicity that thousands of angry striking miners wept, joined hands and sang along.
Word of the young singer's dramatic performance and of her haunting voice spread quickly and she became a sensation in Nova Scotia and throughout Canada. From the cheering crowds at the 2000 Canada Day celebration in Ottawa to the release of a 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.
