Oddmanout

Philadelphia-based Odd Man Out included guitarist/vocalist Ed Ludwig and drummer Fran Rapposelli, who'd previously played in area rock act Tomfoolery. In 2003 Ludwig and Rapposelli formed Odd Man Out with bassist Ken Magas and guitarist Darren Carango, and the quartet quickly gained a foothold in the local scene with their straightforward blend of rock, pop, and blues influences. The Inverse Element LP appeared in early 2005 through the band's own Gutter Eye imprint. ~ Johnny Loftus
