Reavsey is....A songwriter. Born South East London, now living in Medway, Kent.

I.....Write it all, play it all, sing it all, record it all.

Press:

"Humour, mixed with just a hint of menace"
Mr J Ripper - The Police Gazette

“Steve Miller once said "Some people call me maurice Cause I speak of the pompitous of love"...I dont think there is much more I can add to that... ”
Norman Nobless - Sensless & Vapid

“he is to slick professional music production what black ice is to motorway driving...”
Bob Fiddler - Pro Knobtwiddlers Monthly

“For better or worse he is certainly unique...”
Phelius Faggpackett - Margate Mirror

"Urban folk that kicks like an ASBO offender"
Ben Down - The South Easterner

"He could be a genius or he could be a fool with a tale to tell..You decide
Lawrence Oblivier - The Medway Gleaner

"Tales from the tip? Singing about the trials and tribulations of everyday folk and the seamier side of life. Reavsey has experienced both the finer side of life and also been down where it gets the toughest. His songs illustrate the richness of reality"
Mrs Reavsey (No relation) - The NMZ

"Walter Mitty?...More like Harry Worth on speed in my opinion."
Cedric Luvie - The Dungeness Daily Record

"New York may have had Ginsberg..But Peckham has Reavsey..and they aint swapping"
Ned Book - The Peckham People

"He was a bit of a handful as a kid, but he's a lot better now"
Dr Electroda - The Phychiatric Journal (Case study edition)

"I am not coming back until he has left"
John Bowden - Sociology Teacher - Letter to the headmaster

"He aspires to be up there with Morrissey..but so far has probably only made it as far as Morris"
Marlon Smug - Lyric Writers Monthly

"I am sure he stole my bike...But I do like his songs"
Gilwell Woggle - Scouts Entertainment Monthly

"You had better not come near my family again!"
Anonymous - Solicitors Letter

"The man is prolific. He has written literally thousands of songs...so the law of averages say there must be some good ones in there..."
Benjamin Pecker - Songwriters and Fancy Mice Guild

"I was always worried he would write a song about me"
Pop Kids Monthly - Peter "The Slider" Lothario

"Reavsey appears to have bridged the gap between Punk and Indy, incorporating the subtle wooden mallet of The Smiths with the Sledgehammer of The Clash...along with just a smidgeon of camp courtesy of The Sweet and their plastic popper beads"
Roy Gay - Campers Monthly

"His songs hover somewhere between dreams and nightmares...or maybe they are one of the same?"
Doris Stokes - Psychic Times

"I suspected his knowledge of musicianship was fairly low as when I asked him why he didn’t use a bridge in many of his songs, he replied he preferred to use smaller instruments of a more conventional nature...Nice bloke though".
Chad "Guitario" Wilson - Musos and Solos

"At first glance he doesnt seem to make any sense at all...but then upon closer inspection he seems to make even less sense than before
King Yorbaka The Venutian - Hidden Meanings and Alien Encounters Monthly

“He may not be the greatest musician in the world...but he plays a mean biro!”
Lionel Bernstein - The Quill and Feather Publication
