After just five days on Amazon.com's Top 100 Chart, Erin McKeown's latest album, 'Hundreds of Lions,' peaked at #1 on the Bestseller MP3 Album Chart.

'Hundreds of Lions', released October 13 on Ani DiFranco's Righteous Babe Records, "truly shines," hails Paste Magazine.

The accomplishment is the latest in an impressive line for Erin, whose groundbreaking "Cabin Fever" series on YouTube brought her closer to her fans, allowing them to interact with her over the Internet while being treated to intimate performances of both new and old songs.
