"[Omega Love's] use of synths and electronics, and their dancefloor-friendly Disco-isms set them apart from many of the similar bands you might find playing around college campuses across the country. Their style fell right in line with other bands that play live electronic Dance Music with traditional instruments rather than computers and sequencers who I really dig"

"Musebird is quite dynamic, it takes the listener on a trip. I applaud the musicianship and effort to reach outside the box...additionally Jocelyn draws you in with her caressing vocals, the combination makes for a fresh sound."

"Weird but tasty news: Spacey-soul outfit Omega Love is gearing up for a pretty intimidating task — participating in the debut of a high-end virtual concert broadcast system … while opening for legendary jazzman Wynton Marsalis...The group will play opening and closing slots for Marsalis while being filmed at WQED’s studios."

"In Geisler, Omega Love found a sonic grounding: Her warm vocal style has more of an old-timey, simple jazz and blues sound than the usual modern-day diva histrionics. That proves an effective counterpoint to the bands propulsive, synth-washed sounds. Omega Love walks a tightrope musically, between accessibility and eccentricity...If anything, the groups eccentricities give it a subtle edginess, both musically and lyrically."
"The Pittsburgh-based jazz- and dance-inflected quintet was a featured act at the Sprout Funds Hothouse party, one of Pittsburghs higher-profile gigs. Shortly before Hothouse, the group played Mattress Factorys Garden Party. And the Cultural Districts Gallery Crawl. And fairly regular gigs at Club Café, Rex Theatre, Z-Lounge, occasionally the Shadow Lounge. Not a bad run for an act thats been playing out for just a year."

"...their music is quite original, especially for Pittsburgh. Its been quite a while since weve seen a really good dance band. A sentiment, it seems, that is shared by quite a few people around town. Omega Love is adding a much-needed element to the Pittsburgh music scene."

Pittsburgh Calling: Local bands making news
"Prime gigs: Omega Love has been a regular presence at clubs like the Shadow Lounge and Club Cafe. They've been landing some of the sweet gala-type gigs. Last week, they played the Hothouse party, and before that, the Mattress Factory."
