Lheidli T’enneh artist secures Juno nomination for multilingual children’s album
Congratulations on your Juno Award Nomination, Kym Gouchie!
Following her children’s album release earlier this winter, local musician Kym Gouchie has secured a Juno nomination. This makes her the second Prince George resident to be nominated, the prior nominee being Marcel Gagnon, also a Lheidli T’enneh nation member.
Shun Beh Nats’ujeh: We Are Healing Through Songs has received praise, and Gouchie is blown away by the recognition that the 16 tracks have received. There were challenges producing the project when illness struck the team, and swelling highs as momentum gained.
When looking for confidence to continue past obstacles, Gouchie recalls her own childhood and tries to step into a role she may not have had when she was younger. These life experiences and more reflect through the album, “I really pulled from every aspect of who I am, and wanted to convey messages where people can connect regardless of how old they were.”
This year, the Junos will be held on March 30th in Vancouver BC.
