Who they are

Oddfellows are a punk band from Denton, Texas. The first lineup played its opening show in December 1994. That version held Chris Pulliam, Mark Ryan and Mike Throneberry. The run stayed mostly local and ended within a few years. The members then spread across a long list of Texas punk bands. Ryan went on to the Marked Men, Mind Spiders, High Tension Wires and O-D-EX. Pulliam and Throneberry played in The Reds. The album notes state the members went on to spawn a hundred bands. The band page tags the sound as pop punk, garage, rock & roll and Texas.
