"Andy Jans-Brown & COZMIC are all heart and you can hear it in their music which has bags of soul." - Nick Baldrian - Fireworks Magazine U.K
"Just listened to the new double album 'Sunshine Avenue' - amazing, you'll be singing along to the title track before its three minutes and 35 seconds have expired. If justice prevails, Jans-Brown should become more familiar with the world's music consumers.4.5 out of 5 for me."
