Although she is a NY resident, Susan's roots are firmly in Ireland. This is a new, refreshing collection of songs in a very traditional style.

"Dublin born and New York based McKeown could easily be compared to Sandy Denny or Loreena McKennitt. She has deep-seated Celtic roots and a flair for bringing the old to the new.

Although she is a NY resident, Susan's roots are firmly in Ireland. This is a new, refreshing collection of songs in a very traditional style which is a bit of a rarity today. The spirituality is immense and her voice suits the style completely. A rare find."
- Roger Marbeck
