Iqaluit's Siu-Ling Han has been scribbling song lyrics and strumming melodies for much of her life, but few of her friends and family knew that. Recognizing the merits of her music, Han's friends decided to pool their efforts and produce a professional record featuring some of her best songs. "I think she felt that they were just ordinary," says Pierre Lecomte, one of Han's friends and a musician formerly based in Iqaluit. 'Time is measured in weeks''It’s been a beautiful experience and I feel pretty ready to go whenever it’s time to go,' says Siu-Ling Han. And despite her hesitation about sharing her music, Han says she's happy the album is out.
