Stephanie is preparing to release her second album in the spring of 2009. The project began with a week of 'live-off-the-floor' sessions recorded in Toronto's legendary Canterbury Studios. Under the direction of renowned multi-instrumentalist Kevin Fox, a talented group of musicians gathered to lay the foundation of a great album.

With Kevin serving as producer, he and Stephanie are crafting ten beautiful new songs to create a reflective acoustic pop album.

Singer/songwriter Kevin Fox is well known in the Canadian music scene as an exceptional cellist and vocalist. He has worked as a musical director at the 2006 Juno Awards in Halifax and for the band Shaye. Kevin has recorded and/or performed with Celine Dion, Tom Cochrane, Feist, Alanis Morisette, Chantal Kreviazuk, RAINE MAIDA, Gordie Sampson, Melanie Doane, Jully Black and many others.

Stephanie’s debut album released in 2004 introduced her abilities as a multi-instrumentalist, singer, composer/arranger, performer and songwriter. A project that started out as a demo, while remaining a low-budget recording, generated interest and support from established industry professionals and world-class studio musicians and performers. The result was an album that received a total of 8 award nominations and won 3 awards. Nominations include:

	2006 ECMA Gospel Recording of the Year
	2006 Shai Awards Folk Album of the Year
	2005 Shai Awards Inspirational Album of the Year
	2005 GMA Canada Covenant Award Instrumental Song of the Year
	2006 Mercy Award for Song & Creative Arts
	2005 Mercy Awards Instrumentalist of the Year

Stephanie has appeared in official showcases at the Junos, the Canadian Country Music Awards, the ECMAs, and Music New Brunswick Week. Her crystal-clear voice and her fusion of classical violin and traditional Celtic fiddle playing has earned her featured artist and nominee status at the ECMAs, GMA Canada's Covenant Awards, the Shai Awards (Canada’s “People’s Choice Awards" for Gospel music), and the New Brunswick Gospel Music Hall of Fame’s Mercy Awards.
