Somebody’s Baby: Sarah Beth Keeley
Compared to fellow Canadian artists like Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Terri Clark & Michelle Wright, Sarah Beth Keeley has been working the Canadian Country Music scene since before 2005. SBK (as her fans call her) comes from a musical family and calls Calgary home. She’s been winning awards and releasing albums with regularity and this year she’s hit the big time with her single, ‘Somebody’s Baby’ in the UK. She’s taken the top spot on CM&T, the UK’s only video channel. We had a few questions for SBK and she had a few answers for us.
