Named in "Top 20 to Watch"
— UR Chicago

"Chicago's Outlaw Family Band are a wiry six-piece band whose sound is a merger of old-timey instrumentation, twangy lo-fi Southern rock and loose, back porch folk, all graced with Young-ian (read Neil) philosophies. The tracks on their self-titled full-length debut were captured fresh, much as they perform them, live and in the moment."
— Miles of Music

"This rootsy Chicago band knows how to get epic and atmospheric without sacrificing its rough edges."
— Kyle Munson, Des Moines Register

"From the bluesy 'The Drifter' to the rockin' country of 'Queen of Desire,' these cleverly-crafted nine originals are sure to please the alt-country sect."
— Michael Swanger, Cityview (Des Moines, IA)

". . . the artists match Eaglesmith’s brilliant song craft with an equal level of performance."
— Brian Baker, Country Standard Time
