notes

Ric Lafontaine has a west coast sound reflecting the free and independent spirit of Vancouver Island. His songs are reminiscent of Cat Stevens but with the flavor of a seasoned fisherman. His music paints pictures of faeries dancing on water and eagles soaring on one wing.

Like a weaver, confident of his craft, Ric takes contemporary themes and transforms them into mystical moments. From his minstrel's bag, he pulls out a melody and a word and takes the listener on a magic carpet ride. Skip a stone on the water and then dance to the moon. Take a pilgrimage and spend some moments with this free-spirited storyteller.

  • This album is a masterpiece!
    author: Henry Locke

    How can someone rate something like this? These songs are all so syncronistic for me that it would be like rating my soulmate!

  • You can't help but fall right into these songs
    author: Brian Hazelbower

    Not very often does a CD come along that you can't wait to listen to every track again and again. Don't operate any machinery while listening to this CD, the imagery is truly spectacular. This is no ordinary songwriter!

  • Lafontaine's music seems to come from hope in human nature

    Lafontaine's music seems to come from hope in human nature, and aspires to perpetuate what is good in people. Vicky Goodeve of The Ladysmith-Chemainus Chronicle
