"The Odd Fiddler from Stockholm set hearts on fire with his melancholic reflections"
-Metica-
"...an exciting voice"
-YellowMelodies-
"I’m not even sure I like the Odd Fiddler, but Chewing Yr Bubblegum (Instead of Laughing At Me) is infectious. Everything about it is simple - the music, the childish lyrics (see: na na na)"
-Enough Cowbell-
"...led by a man merely named Pell. His brand of low fidelity charms can be highly reminiscent of the more fragmented Syd Barrett outtakes found on Opel, but is quite a bit more chorus-drenched and even a bit more sun-fried at times"
-RetroLowFI-
"The last band on here is The Odd Fiddler, the only band not from Sweden (instead, they come from London) - let's just say that we never needed to leave the country..."
-indiepages-
"seem uninspired and pointless"
-whisperinAndHollerin-
"great haircut ! But I'm personally less convinced about the songs."
-baron zero

"The Odd Fiddler has always been me and my soul and my diary. Some people hide them or lock 'em up. It's noting for me. I have been The Odd Fiddler since the day I was born the 25: Th February 1980. In different ways of course, I can't really explain to you so you people understand what it's all about." /Pell

------------------------
"Cigarette leaves, Crowded trains I mean just everything that affect my life really! at some point or another"
------------------------
"sometimes I might call myself and my band mates artists (or I want to do it anyway), but it might be wrong, in a strange way we are second-hand artists, I mean all the things that inspire us are the real artists (just ordinary peoples and things we might just meet randomly or whatever) we just deliver it through our heart, soul & minds in our own way..."/Pell
------------------------
not really influences but there was two Swedish and two British bands (amongst others) all those years ago that just meant a bit more to me than anything else.
