Citizen Alien was featured by Grant Lawrence and AIRED NATIONALLY ON CBC Television as part of OUR CITY

“Citizen Alien with it’s uplifting melody and dark historical subject matter is the song that you need to add to your playlist this week…”

WATCH THE VIDEO

"... ten brilliantly recorded original compositions with stories taken from life... worn by Keri's beautiful, crystal-clear vocals, described by one critic as the perfect combination of Emmylou Harris, Dolly Parton and Nancy Griffith" - COUNTRY JUKEBOX, GERMANY

 

★★★★ out of five "A uniquely disarming songwriter... her sweet, warm voice and her penchant for old-time folk and country-tinged roots pop belie her sharp, observational writing which, when combined with her empathetic nature, conjures all sorts of interesting characters." - WINNIPEG FREE PRESS , CANADA 

 

"Keri Latimer has a voice that's pretty and full of character; unmistakably hers... thoughtful songwriting and unexpected lyrical turns, with dreamy pedal steel and the even dreamier Theremin... this magical combination is also what makes their music so darn good." - EXCLAIM! MAGAZINE, CANADA 

 

"Sigh. If the rest of Citizen Alien, is half this good, expect another Juno nod and maybe another win for these two. Then watch for an Order of Canada citation and a press release announcing Devin and Keri’s selection for the Canadian space program. Because really, is there anything these two can’t do?" - ROOTS MUSIC CANADA, CANADA
