Jazziz called it a radiant new collection. CD Hotlist said yet another triumph from one of Americas finest jazz pianists, composers, and bandleaders. Their 2019 CD, Keep Talkin, showcases Miwas fine playing and artful compositions and the trios uncanny musical camaraderie.

JazzTimes also reviewed the album favorably, praising Miwas jaw-dropping degree of technique. The album enjoyed seven weeks in the top 10 on Jazz Weeks charts, much like its predecessor, Miwas 2017 release Pathways, which also made Jazz Weeks top 10 for several weeks.
