Responses:
Artemis is one of the most intelligent, genuine singer-songwriters I have ever worked with. An altruistic vision, a strong communication with her
audience, and a resonance with her material make Artemis an artist to be remembered. Her smooth, airy voice floats on pretty melodies as it permeates
your soul. The More Light album is an eclectic collection with pop, rock, country, jazz and Celtic influences. With her background as a high school
teacher, the songs of Artemis carry positive messages for young people, including love, gratitude, self-esteem, racial tolerance, courage, and a
positive attitude, woven into the tapestry of story songs.--Dale Russell (Producer of More Light, Lead Guitarist for The Guess Who, l983-2000)
More Light showcases her voice beautifully. Sometimes soft, breathy and haunting, sometimes plaintive and earthy, but always warm and pleasing, it
caresses both the lyrics and mood of the music. Dale Russell must be commended for his state-of-the-art production and solid guitar work. --Wendell
Ferguson (Six-time winner of CCMA’s Guitarist Of The Year Award)
A positive voice in an era of cynicism and selfishness that encourages one to do for others and strive for what is best in oneself. A beautiful voice
which exudes sincerity as it soothes the emotions and urges the listener to find the courage to follow his heart... Tightly-produced songs tug at the
heart- strings...and the spectrum of the intense experience of youth: love, family, fear and confusion, prejudice and the need for truth, honesty and
connection.-- Harvie Friede (Gifted Program Teacher /Vice Principal for the Durham District School Board)
Hey, hey - Well haven't you been really busy! Sounds great - I just listened to a bunch of clips. I really like the EVERYTHING song - the vibe and lyrics
are really cool - they popped out at me with one listen. Your vocals are nice as well. How you manage to be a mother, teacher, songwriter, SASS-storm-
trooper, and all the rest of it- is mind-boggling. Keep it up -- Jeff Straker
I was completely blown away by the sound and lyrics of the CD..."More Light" and hope I can do a small part by purchasing, selling (through my store
and shows), and returning resulting proceeds back to S.A.S.S. --Les Ford, Jungle Interiors www.jungleinteriorplants.com
