Album Of The Week

"This is a really strong statement from a consummate artist who returns with another shining example of her songwriting talents. And it is well worth the wait!"

- Paul McGee / Lonesome Highway -

"Annie Keating's 'Bristol County Tides' is a blueprint that lockdown has been kind in the creative stakes for Annie Keating. Admittedly this has not always been the case for many artists. However let's rejoice in one who has grasped the moment. Whether she is a performing songwriter or a songwriting performer, all cylinders are firing at full capacity here. Those comments anointing this as her finest body of work yet may have a point to the extent that release day is just the start. Let's ride this record on a long distance journey and see where it takes us."

"Named for the hideaway in Massachusetts where Annie Keating retired to during the pandemic, 'Bristol County Tides' finds the normally Brooklyn based artist in both gutsy and reflective form. The album is an odyssey of sorts with a claustrophobic funkiness in its opening numbers, eventually opening out into a more relaxed acceptance of the way things are. Along this journey, Keating breathes life into some exceptional characters and also pays heed to more personal matters, family, friends and relationships."

- Paul Kerr / Blabber'N'Smoke -

"There’s a lot to appreciate here, but most of all 'Bristol County Tides' is an album from an artist at the top of her game and something you can allow yourself to settle back and just wallow in."

- Alan Harrison / The Rocking Magpie -

"There’s no hint of a writer's block for Annie Keating. Her 8th full length album contains 15 songs and almost one hour's worth of music. Whatever road Keating chooses, you can lay safe bets on the fact that she'll keep on keeping on and that album number 9 won’t be long in coming!"

- Martin Raybould / Whisperin' & Hollerin' -

”Lay down on a sandy beach and watch the tides, Annie Keating will be your melancholic companion.”

- Marino Serdons / Keys & Chords -

"The album 'Bristol County Tides' is the 10th studio album from Brooklyn based singer songwriter Annie Keating and we dare say that it is absolutely the best one in her almost 30 years lasting music career. Warm, heartfelt and atmospheric songs are incorporated into uptempo tracks and sweet ballads. Our sincere thanks to Annie for this solace providing record in these tough times of pandemics, quarantines and lockdowns.“

- Valére Sampermans / Rootstime -
