Life Happens
Released March, 2007

Kim Fontaine has done it again. “Life Happens” offers an earthy-folksy feel delivered through soulful lyrics that validate her talents as a song-writer, delivered in a package that also solidifies her talents as a musician. Brilliantly recorded, engineered and mixed- delivering an awesome sound, and yet another example of the amazing talents our province holds.

John and Vicki Arcand
