"Doug Byrkit and Brian Zielie have a sound that is second to none. Great songs, great playing, truly original. Almost a modern day Steely Dan” ”

- MIKE ZITO | 2010 Blues Award Song of The Year - RUF RECORDS

The Tone of Odds Lane was faultless and they were the tightest band to stop in Springfield in quite some time. They are a true Professionals! ”

- MARK AUDI | Board Member - ILLINOIS CENTRAL BLUES CLUB

"Brilliant, and sometimes darkly humorous, it is impossible to categorize Odds Lane and we wouldn't have it any other way." ”

- JD Nash| American Blues Scene Magazine
