The first inaugural reviews on Bonnie’s new album offered:
"Ste-Croix is a talented singer-writer whose latest CD, Here I Am, neatly balances serious pop with a rootsy type of rock. Nicely done." -Tom Harrison, The Province.
"The Gaspé, Québec native possesses the songwriting prowess of storytellers Dar Williams, Shawn Colvin and Tom Waits, with an immediately recognizable, smoky voice that fluctuates between a sensual bluesy Bessie Smith, an assertive country-tinged Mary Chapin Carpenter, and a heartfelt acoustic rocker Sarah McLachlan." -B.L. Whitehall, Extra West.
"Produced by Vancouver's Bill Buckingham and featuring some of our best players, this is a rich amalgam of writing styles from a fine singer (with)…songs like 'Berry Point Road" showing loving attention to craft." - John McLaughlin, The Province.
"Here I Am" has very nice feeling and mood to it and is very accessible for radio. "Berry Point Road" has a great instrumental intro and "Eddy" is a nice country/pop rock diversion without being "out of place" from the other songs. The vocals are great and suit the material very well. Her voice is very reminiscent of Sarah McLachlan at times but it somehow manages to keep its own identity. The instruments are exceptionally played…The production on the tracks is done well and the drums also have a nice sound…with a few extra instruments/sounds that give it a little bit of an edge over a lot of other singer-songwriter music out today. A lot the songs have a more “organic" feel and the synth contributes nicely in “Here I Am". All the songs are musically and lyrically different and original. Some have catchy hooks in the choruses and verses; are quite accessible and easy to listen to." - Fifty Fifty Music New York, NY.
