“KEELWORLD is a unique ride across all the musical landscapes I’ve called home the past five decades – from the heavy metal jungle to the red dirt roads of country music,” Ron explains. “As diverse as the songs are, even with the stark contrast between styles, the album has a cohesive sonic identity, and the pieces fit together just as I hoped they would.”

Her songwriting is a “contemplative and transcendental experience with an unbelievably soft voice that reaches to catch your attention in deep and translucent waters, purifying the soul and enabling you to feel the positive vibrations”, (Roadie Music Reviews).
