Search - Bonnie Ste-Croix :: Flying High

Album Title: Flying High
Producers: Craig Zurba and Bonnie Ste-Croix When you first hear Flying High, you feel like you have stumbled upon someone?s diary. But instead of putting it away, it entices the irreverent nature within us to pore over the words seeking deeper secrets than we ought to know. But noted somehow, this singer/songwriter is unique in character, succinct in purpose and verse and writes within words instead of about them. You will be driven to listen again and again; and each time it will surface unlike the one before. The lyrical ingenuity is shameless. You hear it throughout, from ?Hey? a roguish how-to-say-get-lost-and-mean-it tune that embodies the humour and not-so-coy tendency of Ste-Croix?s expression; to the addicting melodic metaphor ?Humpty?, a clever collage of nursery rhymes; to a gentle narrative of the contemporary struggle of trying to be everything to everyone at the cost of losing sight of self in "Torn in Two.? As an album, Flying High emits raw vulnerability delivered in the unlikely blending of wit, humour and insight. The songs instinctively capture the artist?s sentiments; "My songs are my shadow...they are reflections of what I feel, what I think and what I absorb from the world around me. They are not ultimate truths, but rather part of learning what my truth is...." In her creation of music, Bonnie Ste-Croix embraces emotion? but also loves to laugh -at life, herself and the ironies of the paths we choose. Her exit-stage-left with "Late Night Delirium" proves that the only thing predictable about this young performer is her unpredictability...and that alone will capture you... but it is the intensity that will bring you home.
