GreenHitz.com Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 ODDSLANE is a uniquely blended mix of driving rock & roll riffs and solid grooves with an overall pop sensibility. They create music that fuses diverse influences from a wide range of styles, but maintains the integrity of what has become their own original sound. The band primarily focuses on the material of singer/songwriter Doug Byrkit, who co-founded the group with longtime musical partner Brian Zielie. Doug & Brian are continuing their musical partnership with their first album as ODDSLANE their current release entitled DARK MATTERS. Doug and Brian’s partnership goes back many years with their first band together while still in high school. Since, they have maintained a close working relationship that has lasted through college and a host of musical projects. Together they can boast such accomplishments as sharing the stage with diverse artist such as Lifehouse, Pete Yorn, and Walter Trout as well as having toured Korea, Japan, and the Pacific Rim. As the core members of ODDSLANE, the pair has formed a creative relationship that blends their broad range of musical influences, ranging from The Beatles and Led Zeppelin to Tower of Power and Miles Davis, with their years of experience recording and touring. To the outside observer, it may seem that Brian plays a small role in the creative process, but his influence on Doug over the years has been the spearhead to the evolution of his songwriting. After a successful Kickstarter.com campaign to fund their 3rd album DARK MATTERS which is the first release under the name ODDSLANE, the group is hoping to build on their past successes, which include several movie & internet soundtracks as well as a featured song on the hit TV show The Deadliest Catch. They have twice earned them attention from the Memphis Regional Grammy Chapter along with some high profile national and international songwriting contests. as well as catching the ear of producers at the legendary Sun Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. DARK MATTERS has already been receiving rave reviews among fans and industry, acquiring them an endorsement deal with Steve Clayton, Inc. , and Doug Byrkit recently being named a 2012 ASCAP Plus Award winner.
