"Dirty Creek Bandits kept things rolling with a set that intermingled bluegrass and a jam band vibe. These guys have already been turning heads with an organic feel and dual lead vocals courtesy of Justin Reid and Wesley Barnett, but the real gravy here was the depth that Brandy Reid’s vocals added to overall presentation". - G.K. Hizer, Urban Tulsa Weekly
“Continuing in the acoustic vein, Dirty Creek Bandits has been turning heads with their modern spin on folk and bluegrass. This isn't just another band jumping on the indie-folk band wagon, though. Instead of following the movement that has come to the forefront with bands like Avett Brothers and Mumford & Sons, Dirty Creek Bandits embrace their Oklahoma roots, moving in a more bluegrass and pure country direction. That's why they've set themselves apart and started building their own following in clubs like Mercury Lounge and why we're expecting even bigger things from them in the coming year. ”
- G.K. HIZER, Urban Tulsa Weekly
"...though the Dirty Creek Bandits might sound like contributors to the “Deliverance” soundtrack, the only thing they’re delivering nowadays is psychedelic folk jams... Fans of everything from Alice in Chains to The Lumineers will love this band of Okies.
