Susan McKeown

TIME Magazine

"An act with strong potential is the Chanting House. [This is the kind of group] that will help link Ireland's musical past with its future. 'We write the songs using the rhythms of jigs and reels, but at the same time they are unmistakably rock songs,' says Chanting House lead singer Susan McKeown. 'Traditional music is dear to me, but it's up to the new generation to see how it's carried down.'"

Dirty Linen

"Chanting House used to be an Irish band. Now they're something more: a hybrid of Irish music heritage with its combination of longing and bravado and a streetwise New York mix of noise and swagger."

Rhythm Music Magazine

"McKeown comes on like a force of nature: she's a deep, spirit-hungry songwriter with a wealth of her own very strong spells. . . Her album Bones is one of the best releases of '95"
