ABSOLUTELY DAN DYER: "And Dan Dyer [the self-titled release] is a blue-ribbon disc. At once joyous, creative, and satisfying, Dyer channels 1970s-era Hathaway and Wonder with modern panache and without a hint of mimicry." - Margaret Moser Austin Chronicle 6/6/08

3 STARS: "Turn your stereo up, and Dyer's rich voice wraps around you on the crawling, gospel-tinged opener "Love Chain." Earnestness is in short supply in today's blue-eyed soul, but Dyer wears emotions on his sleeve and never sings with tongue in cheek, repeatedly asserting that "love can change your life" on "Love's a Game." In a divine falsetto, the album's funkiest track, "Anne-Marie," poses the classic jilted lovers' question: "Why you trippin'?"
- Thomas Fawcett, Austin Chronicle

"Soul singer Dan Dyer, whose new self-titled album is the closest anyone in Austin has gotten to Stevie Wonder..."
- Michael Corcoran, Austin American Statesman

"It's one thing to claim soul as an influence and quite another to actually put the classic authority of Al Green and Sly Stone to proper use. Dan Dyer sings with an instinctive urgency that incorporates elements of country, blues and soul, tying things together with what's universal in the best of each genre: intensity."
- Darryl Smyers, Dallas Observer
