Keating,Annie For Keeps CD

New-York based singer/songwriterßAnnie Keating's fifth album, 'For Keeps' is a keeper. ßBeautifully crafted songs combined with musical hooks and punches knock the listener right in the chest, making this album stand out as an instant classic. ßWith refreshing honesty, grit and timelessness, Keating and her band of musical magic makers achieve a sound that is both complex and simple, new and vintage. The first song gets it's hooks in you and after 12 tracks you just want MORE.ß This brooklyn-based songwriterßknows how to write and deliver beautiful songs with a magical earthly rich voice and arrangement that transfixes.
