Annie Keating
For Keeps
Self-released

Annie Keating has been around a while and her new record sees her put that experience to good use. Opener "Storm Warning" is a soulful rocker with a great lead vocal. "Just For Today" is a hopeful song that shows off Keating's husky voice well. "All Gone" is a song with a strong melody and a sad reflection about a failed relationship. Keating's sharp words are a joy to hear.

The closing cover of Neil Young's "Cowgirl in the Sand" is beautifully rendered and is a testament to her talent. Her album is a keeper.
