Our Mission

That’s How I Know was produced Chris Burke-Gaffney (with the exception of one track). The album will includes the very personal “I Can’t Love You to Death,” which was inspired by her real-life experience of setting boundaries between herself and a loved one struggling with addiction. “I wasn’t going to release this song. Until I heard Charles Kelley’s personal song about being an addict. For me, music is most touching when its honest. His honesty compelled me to share this story” she says.

You’ve waited long enough… it’s finally here!
The 2025 Manitoba Country Music Awards — our 10-Year Anniversary Show — lit up the stage on Saturday, November 8, 2025 at Club Regent Casino & Event Centre…
