The album ISLANDS reviewed by the Folker Magazine (Germany)
​
"The Montreal artist flies now to new horizons. This great pilgrim voice traveled from her native Quebec to Galicia, then Iceland and Scandinavia, and reached the Scottish island of Barra last year.
A harmonious, barely instrumented, very personal song compilation focused on Scotland."
