live performance reviews
Opening for Bobby McFerrin - "Somehow it was Leaf Rapids’ first time playing the Burt (Burton Cummings Theatre), but they seemed right at home on the theatre’s iconic stage, especially when being ushered off of it with a standing ovation." - ERIN LEBAR, WINNIPEG FREE PRESS
The Great Escape, Brighton's Finest - “Leaf Rapids...dished out the softest sounding folk which had the audience at the Green Door Store in awe. Keri’s voice was incredible with every song sounding like the softest lullaby.” - IAIN LAUDER, THE GREAT ESCAPE
“Leaf Rapids followed with something so hauntingly beautiful that words do not do justice. Theremin, soothing vocals and a perfectly performed bass part made for a spellbinding, sublime performance.” - LIVERPOOL SOUNDCITY FESTIVAL

album reviews lucky stars
"Vultures circle overhead, squirrels are in the attic, there's a kiss in the toxic rain, and a town that hits 40-below at 4 AM. Stuff is going on here." - BOB MERSEREAU'S TOP 100 CANADIAN BLOG
"The Latimers are able to offer up a lovely, shimmering example of seductive Americana, emphasizing a sound that soothes, seduces and shines. It’s all but impossible to walk away feeling anything but enchanted." - POP MATTERS, US
"Write down this name, Keri Latimer. This album, Lucky Stars, is just about as delightful as anything I’ve heard this year." - EAR TO THE GROUND, US
"What sets Lucky Stars apart, though, is Keri's voice, which ranges from the unique delicateness of Hannah Georgas (Virtual Machine) to the twang of an early Dolly Parton (Gravity and a Ladder of Gold)." - EXCLAIM! MAGAZINE
“... dreamy and haunty.. with several doses of theremin that give the songs an eerie quality that underlines their otherworldliness” - MAVERICK MAGAZINE, UK/US
