There's a simple, elegant brilliance to Helen's work. Completely unpretentious, her songs are expertly and deliberately crafted, like fine dining in a cozy outdoor cafe. A truly exceptional artist. ~ HH

“WOW...Helen Austin is an incredible artist whose album, TREEHOUSE, is proof that this young lady can sing her behind off. Helen takes a less is more approach to the music on this project keeping it simple by using her acoustic guitar and her voice as the foundation of every song.
"Just Thirteen" is a fun and honest song about that awkward phase in life that every girl experiences when she's "not grown up, just in between." Great songwriting and singing.
Other great songs by Helen include: Everybody, Treehouse, You and I, and Wonderful Day. Every track on this project represents the awesomeness that is Helen Austin the artist, musician and songwriter.
Overall, TREEHOUSE is a great project that offers 13 incredible songs by one of the most talented singer-songwriters I've heard since first hearing the wonderful work of Alanis Morisette. I am officially a fan of you, Ms. Helen Austin!”

feels honoured to be nominated for Best Female Songwriter in the Vancouver Island Music Awards. If it weren't for songwriting I'd be paying a therapist a lot of money ;)
