Press and Fan Reviews

 
"Modern Rock Band 'Odds Are' helped say one final goodbye to summer at the ShoreNights.com farewell to summer bash on a chilly night in Gardner's Basin this September. The quartet, fronted by Jaime Tenner, played a one-hour set at the Flying Cloud Cafe that included a solid mix of originals and some classic covers. Laura Leuter rocked out on lead guitar [and] blazed through some great guitar riffs. Belinda Connolly held it all together with a solid performance on bass."
Excerpt from the Island Journal, October 2005 edition
 
"…and then Odds Are bust in with their million and a half friends and just start ruling the place like rock-n-roll monarchs. They start belting out these sassy lead vocals, and then they start in with the dope harmonies, and people were just like, yeah! This rocks. They were damn good, and they made more than a few people very happy with their Janis Joplin cover."

Review of 11/05/05 performance
 
"[Odds Are] did awesome this weekend! Great stage presence, awesome originals, rockin' covers... Looking forward to seeing where your musical career goes because it's obviously going somewhere."
Quote from Michelle, Odds Are fan
 
"Powerpop and Straightmetal band Odds Are sound really cool to me. I really like the four songs they have up [on the website]. Especially the third song they have lined up there, "Abandon Me." The guitar is unstudied, raw, and heartfelt, especially around the intro. They're not seeming to sound like they're trying to be anyone else except themselves. Please help me give credit to a band that's finding their own voice and staying on that course. Methinks something good from Jersey comes again. Yay!!!"
