***Recent Media Clips:

Paula's new single, Woman, is a bluesy anthem for the lady of the 90's and was an immediate add to our C-98 playlist...Woman is a sure-fire, multi-format hit that will appeal to both male and female listeners...Paula's cool mix of blues and pop savvy is the right combination!
--Paul Jensen, Music Director (K-100, C-98, CFBC) January '99

The singing Saint John social worker...has a great voice, something like Joni Mitchell, and her compositions are original.
-- Marni Weisz, Music Critic, Saint John Times-Globe, Feb. '99
