★★★★ out of five "Keri Latimer ... has always been a uniquely disarming songwriter. Keri’s 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, it's the standout mainstay of the Leaf Rapids sound. But there's also her thoughtful songwriting and unexpected lyrical turns, the addition of dreamy pedal steel, and the appearance, on some tracks, of the even dreamier Theremin, that make the band so recognizable. This magical combination is also what makes their music so darn good." - EXCLAIM! MAGAZINE  8/10, 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

“What a fantastic record... The touching history of their ancestors have been translated into ten great songs on the album ‘Citizen Alien’, all being supported by the golden and platinum layered voice of Keri.“ - ROOTSTIME, BELGIUM 

"You had me at the theremin. But combined with a light folky oom-pa-pa, Virginia carries me away to a land of memories and associations." - BAD GARDENING ADVICE, CANADA

"Leaf Rapids, situated in north west Manitoba is described as one of Canada's 'hidden treasures'. The same could well apply to the duo." - FATEA, UK 

"... ten brilliantly recorded original compositions with stories taken from life... they are 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

"... reminds one of the sisters Kate and Anna McGarrigle and of some of the best Emmylou Harris in a dreamy alteration of country melodies and folk roots... "  - LONESTAR TIME, ITALY

"Like a summer breeze ushering the winter blues out the door, a brand new album by Canadian duo” - THREE CHORDS AND THE TRUTH, UK

"Firmly rooted yet not wholly contained to a specific genre, decade or geography, Lucky Stars is an inviting collection of songs that warms the heart and ears. Again and again." - BUCKET FULL OF NAILS, US
