Fiery anthems and tumultuous confessional songs punctuated with glorious, raw guitar. --USA Today
Deep blues guitar, rugged, soulful singing, superb hard-hitting songs from scorched-earth, funky hard rock to sweet and tender ballads. A phenomenal blend of reflective self-awareness, and rambunctious spirit and muscle. --Relix
Rich and glorious...Osborne wields a guitar with the precision of a surgeon and the ardor of a lover. Possessing a voice that rises out of the darkness to the light of a soulful, tremulous wail, he is a consummate shaman, bending successive moments to suit his majestic purposes. Osborne seeks an epic quality to much of his music, crafting layer upon layer of hugely scaled soundscapes. Never lazily derivative, every slashing guitar figure, every cry of a lyric, seems to come from an authentic place. --New Orleans Times-Picayune
Osborne's palette ranges from bold and beautiful to demonically overdriven. He's an intense roots rock player and he s especially wicked when he whips out a slide. His greatest attribute is his ability to conjure intimate feelings from the darkest depths and the highest heights of his soul and share them through song via guitar and vocals. --Guitar Player
Mind-bogglingly great, Anders Osborne can play the gutbucket bluesman and hot guitar slinger' and he can play the sensitive, soulful singer/songwriter, and he's excellent at both. The guy is a triple threat as a singer, songwriter, and instrumentalist. Soulful, wildly diverse, thoughtful and raw. --Paste
