“In a musical landscape overrun with sound alike hip-pop and industrialized auto-tuned dance music, “Evan Barber & the Dead Gamblers” is the real deal.”
- Carlton Fletcher- Albany Herald- Albany, Ga November 10, 2010
Evan Barber & The Dead Gamblers’ self-titled debut album is a solid collection of Southern rock and alt-country tunes that establishes them as a band on the rise.Listening to songs such as the dreamy country/blues inflected “Perfume and Whiskey,” or the rollicking “Ramblin’” there is a sense of the raw power and emotion that would come from a live performance
-Nathan Wagner- Corner News Auburn, Al December 6, 2010
With a sound that fuses “Southern” rock and “jam,” Evan Barber and the Dead Gamblers have released a striking studio debut.
- J. Evan Wade- Homegrown Music Network Mebane, NC March 2nd, 2011
Evan Barber & the Dead Gamblers use a fantastic fusion of Southern rock, Jam band, and Americana influences to yield a great debut album.
