Dan Dyer is killing the critics “And Dan Dyer [the self-titled release] is a blue-ribbon disc. At once joyous, creative, and satisfying, Dyer channels 1970s-era Hathaway and Wonder with modern panache and without a hit of mimicry.” - Austin Chronicle “The closest anyone in Austin has gotten to Stevie Wonder.” - Austin American Statesman “It’s one thing to claim soul as an influence and quite another to actually put the classic authority of Al Green and Sly Stone to proper use. Dan Dyer sings with an instinctive urgency that incorporates elements of country, blues and soul, tying things together with what’s universal in the best of each genre: intensity.” - Dallas Observer “The Austinite’s self-titled album also drips with the bayou-moss, sticky- humidity funk of his East Texas/Louisiana border hometown, plenty of blue- eyed soul falsetto, his alternately twinkly and dangerous electric piano and gospel influences galore. Dyer does it well while not sounding at all imitative or derivative.” - Texas Music Magazine The press babble on about Backyard Tire Fire, and they add more tour dates “The perfect primer for a group that truly is one of rock’s best kept secrets.” - PopMatters.com “...they’ve gone from a little loveable band from the Midwest to “band to watch” status.” - Nine Bullets “If you’re tired of the same refurbished, drivel that continually makes the air waves, this is your door way to walk through the mundane and into the vividness of raw but polished Americana. There are ordinary story tellers who write lyrics and then their are master narrators, who make you believe what they are saying like you were there with them when they wrote the song.” - Ozone and Shadow Blog “The Places We Lived is inventive, intelligent, genre-crossing good fun, Backyard Tire Fire a band defiantly swimming against the raging current of cookie-cutter corporate rock and alt-country bands.” - Blurt “This impressive piece of work is a complete presentation built on solid songs, brief harmony, and homespun musicianship, and it shines.” - Glide Magazine “The Places We Lived has obvious twang-rock influences, but with and abundance of piano peppering the album it moves far beyond. Whatever it is, it’s damn good. It makes me wish I had a beer and nowhere to go.” - Can You See The Sunset “Equate the sound to how you feel when go to your nearest smokey bar, light a cigarette, order a bucket, kick back and kinda feel like you don’t give a f*ck. In other words, it’s a real good feeling you get listening to these guys.” - My Old Kentucky Blog “Take everything you love about Patterson Hood’s emotional grit, The Old 97s classic barnburner footstompers, and the spirit Whiskeytown had when Ryan still had something to prove, and you’ve already got a good sense of what the band is about.” - Berkeley Place “BTF is ripe for wider discovery, perhaps the next in line behind other recently anointed working artists like The Hold Steady, Alejandro Escovedo, the Truckers and My Morning Jacket. The music is all there on Places, and a great trail of tunes lays behind it.” - JamBase “Instead of being just another collection of guitar driven, middle of the road rock music full of stolen riffs from some of the worst excesses of the 1970’s, these guys know how to write and arrange songs and understand what melody means.” - BlogCritics.org “Backyard Tire Fire’s exposed new sounds and ideas and shaped a record that is completely different from anything we’ve heard from them before...they’ve grown more than should be possible a few short months since they were offering up a collection of acoustic ditties.” - Hero Hill New tour dates added! With Rose Hill Drive: 10/14 Salt Lake City, 10/15 Boise, 10/16 Seattle, 10/18 Portland With Squirrel Nut Zippers: 10/27 Asheville NC, 10/28 Charleston SC, 10/29 Atlanta, 10/30 Knoxville For up-to-the-minute AAA news...
