Reviews

"Trademark blend of rock and pop with just a hint of country thrown in for good measure - think Nick Cave on a dose of Prozac" - Miles Keylock, The Mail & Guardian

"Intelligent pop rock" - Evan Milton, The Argus

"A sparkling solo debut from Cape Town folk-rocker SteveVan featuring his drawly-gruff vocals and laid back guitar tunes... Getting Stronger is a 10-song offering with JJ Cale-like flowing melodies and warm-hearted lyrics, mostly about love. The title track is an obvious single, but [producer] Chris Tait has ensured that all these arrangements bring the best out of these pleasant tunes, and there's more than one single on show here. Try Me, Stay and You're Wasting Time could be next." - Brian Currin, Sarockdigest.com
