“…Andrew Veivers is an Australian with a flamenco soul.” Courier Mail

“…The Solea was technically first-rate, with his gentle massaging of the fingerboard contrasting skilfully with frenzied playing on the body of the instrument to produce a powerful and frenetic finale. Bain-Douches was pure flamenco with its tango rhythms, equally as dynamic and full of breathtaking energy and commitment, that was technically superb. One could feel that Sevillian heat pulsating from the stage.” Limelight Magazine
