OPENING UP WITH ODELL

Get to know Nashville based Pop Rock artist, ODELL. Current single, “I Don’t Miss The Ocean” avail now! Stream it below.

YOU’VE GOT A NEW SONG CALLED “I DON’T MISS THE OCEAN” TALK ABOUT YOUR SONGWRITING PROCESS FOR IT

It all started with a friend of mine reflecting on an old flame that he had had. The song ended up being a reflective journey of the beginning stages of romance. As we all know, the world around us can seem to fade away in the initial stages of a romance. Even things you once loved (the ocean.)

TALK ABOUT YOUR SOUND AND HOW NASHVILLE HAS IMPACTED IT

Nashville has opened my eyes to so many new possibilities sound-wise. With my sound already being so pop-driven, it has been fun to see how new trends (Southern Pop, Indie Pop) have crept into my songs throughout the past couple of years. My producer (John-Luke Lewis) is a SAVANT of new/cutting edge sounds that surprise me every time, and I would’ve never had that without moving here and combining our skills/experiences.

 
 

 WHAT’S AN UPCOMING TRACK YOU HAVEN’T RELEASED YET THAT YOU’RE MOST EXCITED FOR?

 As I type this, final vocals are being edited for my 3rd Single Release, “Run To.” This is the most fun/upbeat of all my original releases and I am so stoked to see people singing along to this. Go follow @odell_music for occasional sneak peeks on the song/other songs! I expect to release this in early 2021 unless I get wild and drop it as a Christmas gift…

WHO ARE YOUR DREAM COLLABORATIONS IN TOWN?

 Definitely Stef, Phangs, Spencer Crandall, Lennon Stella, Julia Cole, and Jordan Schmidt

 WHAT’S NEXT FOR ODELL?

 In the midst of uncertain times, I am focusing heavily on songwriting with plans to play some of my first “ODELL” shows in early 2021! Until then, stream “17 Hours,” “I Don’t Miss the Ocean” and “Reckless Kids”
