Press Reviews "Andy's first album, SEARCHING, is a triumph" ... "While his lyrics are bitingly intelligent and clever, they are also warm and humane and filled with detail and wit...Even though his lyrics are carefully considered, Andy Raven never neglects to write melodies for songs that are strong and memorable" ... "One of the warmest and most thoughtful albums ... in a long time". Biz Magazine, September 2002. Radio Play includes University Radio Bath and Reading College Radio.
