Been Here Before is a nice and gentle showcase of the writing and performing talent of Katie Marie. In just six tracks she covers a wide range of material but maintains a high level of quality in the delivery.

The opening track, "Have My Love," was a hit on Soundclick.com for seven weeks and is probably the strongest offering on the CD. "Star" comes close as a favourite of mine.

Ably assisted by Jools O'Kelly, this short CD is a worthwhile piece for your collection to get in on the ground floor of a young singer-songwriter with very good potential.
