Forget Me Not is the second collection of original songs from 21-year-old southern Ontario singer Ariana Gillis. “Original” not only indicates that she wrote or co-wrote all the songs, but that the subjects are unusual. Not many artists (regardless of their age) write songs about creatures in a lake with healing powers, people in adjacent graves chatting with each other, the annual slaughter of dolphins in a cove in Japan, or young sailors forced to walk the plank.

“I’m staggered by how good she is. There is not much that impresses me these days but after hearing her available tracks I can honestly say she’s the single most exciting thing I’ve heard in a very long time.” – Bernie Taupin, Elton John’s lyricist

“Ariana Gillis is the best new emerging artist anywhere, PERIOD!” – Dave Marsh, best selling author, former music critic of Rolling Stone Magazine & Creem Magazine.
