Odd Socks

About Me


We are 6 friends from Lancaster who all like different styles of music and one summer decided we'd get together and play it all at once. This is how Odd Socks formed; friends playing the music they love. Throw in some super skank and the ignorance of the principle of a stage and you've got us. Not much more than that.
We'll play pretty much anywhere and anytime from front rooms to supporting other bands. So if you like us give us a message or if you have a gig; we'd love to play :)
Keep on skankin'

Here's what other people say
'Reputed for their unrelenting energy, Odd Socks deliver a storming set that moves the most placid of audiences into a frenetic whirlwind of musical delight while they struggle (and most often not fail) to confine themselves to the stage. Classical trained front lady Xoe Whitfiled delivers vocals with the passion of Gwen Stefani in her hey day, while her band spar her on taking influence from a range of genres including, salsa, gypsy and old-school reggae. Combined with an infectious pop sentiment and professional delivery ,rare for a band still in school, Odd Socks are a treat for any audience. Get them while you can!' - Little Hellfire Club Records
'I hope to see a lot more of Odd Socks, easily the best new band to come out of Lancaster in a long while...' - SCAN
'Playing nationally with artists such as The Lancashire Hotpots, Odd Socks are marvelous. Their songs sound like a cheerful Morrissey on holiday in the Caribbean. With a growing reputation in Lancaster and Beyond, Odd Socks are something no to miss' -
