Tom Odell and band took to the stage amongst minimal lightning and hazy fog, to begin their ninety-minute set with ‘Still Getting Used to Being on My Own’ from the new record

Acclaimed singer-songwriter Tom Odell is on tour… he’ll stop at First Avenue in Minneapolis on October 18th.


Tom Odell (01 May 2019)

We saw Odell in May 2019 and said, “With a simple piano and three-piece backing band, Tom Odell took to the stage with tousled blonde hair dressed in a dark jacket for his ninety-minute set, beginning it with 2016’s ‘Sparrow’. A Brit Awards Critics Choice winner, the Elton John-influenced Odell remains oddly still a bit of a musical secret on these shores, while the similar sounding Keane, Chris Martin, and others have gone on to wider audiences, though things may change with Odell’s continued quality output and his consistent touring.”



Alt-pop Isabel LaRosa to open. The rising pop star is touring in support of You Fear the God That Loves You.



Toronto quartet Jane’s Party is also a special guest on this tour. The indie group’s EP The Best of Wild in the Woods Vol. 1 will land in November. In the meantime, you can hear their new single, “Dirty Work (feat. Danica)” is a cover of Steely Dan’s 1972 seminal track.

Producer and musician Mike Viola has worked with everyone you love, including Panic! at the Disco, Andrew Bird, Ryan Adams, Jenny Lewis, Fall Out Boy, Mandy Moore… etc.



His latest album called Paul McCarthy came out in April 2023 on Good Morning Monkey/Grand Phony. The name is obviously a tribute to the famed Beatles.
