Keren Ann (born Keren Ann Zeidel in Caesarea, Israel, on March 10, 1974) is a singer/songwriter with dual Dutch-Israeli citizenship. She plays guitar, piano and clarinet and engineers and writes choir and musical arrangements. She is from Russian Jewish descent on her father’s side and Javanese-Dutch on her mother’s. She lived in the Netherlands and Israel until the age of 11, when her family moved to France.
The new album "101" hasn't got great reviews, but I'm liking this track regardless.

Keane is an English piano rock band, first established in Battle, East Sussex in 1995, taking their current name in 1997. The group is comprised of composer, bassist, and pianist Tim Rice-Oxley, lead vocalist Tom Chaplin and drummer Richard Hughes. Their original line-up included founder and guitarist Dominic Scott, who left in 2001.
Keane’s first two studio albums, Hopes And Fears and Under The Iron Sea, achieved great success in the United Kingdom upon release and very high sales worldwide: their multi-award-winning debut was the best-selling British album of 2004 and their follow-up sold 222,297 copies during its first week on sale in June 2006.
So here's hoping success will follow them with Night Train!
In advance of his upcoming solo album, Bloc Party frontman KELE Okereke will play a series of Irish dates in May. Tarnishing his copy with the Irish after shouting down the mic at Oxegen "delighted to be back in the UK" on their last visit to the country, hopefully this gig will be a chance to redeem himself!
