Locked In The Closet: Ep 8 with Drake Fisher of Oddfellas

Like most people today, Drake is just like the rest dealing with all that is COVID-19.  With the majority of the country practicing social distancing, work and band life have taken some turns.  Drake, working in construction, has seen a dip but is hopeful that things will pick back up.  One of the things he is noticing is that he is seeing families spending more time together outside.  Taking walks, playing, kids riding their bikes.  Even during tough times, somehow people are still enjoying themselves the best they know how.Oddfellas is relatively new to the podcast as far as their music and performances.  About two years ago, Ryan happened to be a judge for the Heaven and Hell Fest Battle that took place at Come and Take It Live in Austin, Tx.  Drake goes into how he didn't think they had a shot but his drummer talked him into it.  With an 8+ hour drive (one way), little money to spare and big dreams in their back pockets, they made the trip to the battle.  Drake explains how he listened to the other bands at the battle and felt they didn't have a good shot at winning.Rounding out the episode, Drake lets us know that Oddfellas is coming out with something fresh, different in the coming months.  They will be releasing the single "Cold" which has a new feel to it vs their older catalog.  He also informs us that they have recorded some "live" sessions but made some adjustments for the best quality.  If you want to reach Oddfellas, hit them up on Twitter where they are pretty active.  The song heard in today's episode is "Dead" of their self-titled album "Oddfellas".
