Getting Started
Aselin Debison started singing long before the
Sony Classical recording company discovered her.
She has been singing since early childhood. In
her preschool play, Leaping Leprechauns, she sang
Irish songs with the rest of her class (with a
few solos included). When she was nine, her
community started to notice her voice. At a coal
miners protest, she gave an unforgettable
performance of the local anthem The Island.
Tears streamed down the faces of many as her
haunting voice touched their hearts. Interesting
enough, this talented young singer has never
taken singing lessons. As she put it, If
somethings not broken, dont fix it! As she
took her first steps to stardom, Aselin created a
foundation for a successful career in the future.

Music Career
For a young artist like Aselin, she has taken a
large leap from small town girl to world famous
singer. Aselin has had a tremendous beginning for
her career. She has signed a 5 album record deal
with Sony Classical. Her superior performance at
the Canada Day celebration in Ottawa in 2000
pleased the Prime Minster greatly. Jean Chrétien
declared her the next Celine Dion. After looking
at other Canadian artists, Aselin is perhaps the
fastest rising star in Canadian music.

Adjusting to Fame
Naomi Kristen, a reporter for Discovery Girls
Magazine had an inspiring interview with Aselin.
One of the many thorough questions was, Speaking
of Canada, have you noticed any big difference
between your hometown and a place where youve
performed, say New York City? We thought there
was no better way to tell you what Aselin thought
then to give you her own words Yes! First of
all there are really, really tall buildings in
New York! Theres nothing even close to that
where I live! In American busy cities, you might
see someone on the street you know, and you might
say hi, but theyll keep walking. Everyone seems
too busy to talk. But my hometown is connected to
an island, and its a quiet, comfortable place
with lots of friendly people. You can be walking
down the street, see someone youve never met
before and strike up a conversation right away!
Aselins positive attitude will hopefully take
her far in the music industry.

The beautiful landscape of Cape Breton inspires
Aselin to keep her heritage alive and sing Celtic
and traditional Cape Breton style music!

Dreams
Although Aselin is enjoying the music
experience, she still has other dreams she is
hoping will come true. Aselin has hopes of
winning a college basketball scholarship and
playing in the WNBA. Along with her basketball
dreams, however, Aselin still wants to continue
her music career.

Time At Home
Although Aselin is very busy singing her Celtic
music, she also enjoys her time at home with her
family and friends. She still lives at home with
her parents Donny, a landscaper, and Joan, a
hairdresser, along with her younger brother,
Blake. There, Aselin continues her normal,
basketballloving childhood. She not only enjoys
Celtic music she also is a fan of country and
pop.
Her favorite singers and bands include Great Big
Sea, Pink, Lil Bow Wow, Celine Dion and
Destiny's Child. No matter how far her career
takes her, family and friends ALWAYS come first.
