Album Notes

Performances in front of capacity audiences.
Opening spots for major country music stars like Leann Rimes.

The release of a major label quality CD with distribution through A&B Sound locations across Canada.

Aimee Pettersen has accomplished these things and more, in less than three years, and by the time her 15th birthday arrived! She is poised to do more. 2004 arrives with much promise... more public performances, and more recording. She is already feted for her graceful, heartfelt, and mature vocal delivery. She has taken material, wether it be popular cover songs, or compositions written expressly for her, and made them uniquely her own. Now Aimee is preparing to unveil her own compositions in the near future, and will most certainly provide her audience with a unique perspective into a remarkable young lady, with a real and profound story to tell.
While Aimee's gift as a technical vocalist is obvious, it is her personal story that informs her artistry. She was born on Christmas Island in the Central Pacific, but a tumultuous turn of events led to her upbringing in Abbotsford, BC, Canada under the watchful and loving guidance of her aunt and uncle who lived there. She attends high school in Abbotsford, but her personal time revolves around the singular pursuit of music, and being a more complete and accomplished performer. The growth has been evident to anyone who has casually tracked her career. With the assistance of vocalists like west coast sensations Jennifer Scott and Glenda Rae, Aimee has become more confident, and more powerful. She commands her audience with a poise usually reserved for much more seasoned singers. This will be a year of big steps.
