Critical responseChannel24 gave a favorable review of Carver in 2009.[9] In June 2010, the City Press said that Carver's Look to the Edge album "has an edgy electronic/pop sound with infusions of South African rhythms and percussion, [and] will appeal to South African and global audiences alike... This 12-track album is unique and diverse. It’s easy listening and has something for everyone."[10] References1. ^http://www.whoswhosa.co.za/louise-carver-6219 2. ^1 2 3 "Louise Carver," Who's Who Southern Africa. Found at Who's Who SA.
