Earlier this year, Tom released his fifth studio album, Best Day Of My Life. Praised by critics upon release, and hailed as “a minimalist masterpiece” (CLASH), the focus was taken off of commercial expectations around his songwriting, creating an environment where listeners can sit with the music and breathe. The result is a work of minimalist beauty, comprising just Tom’s voice, a piano, and the occasional creak of a stool, to form what is not just Tom’s rawest and most honest album to date with its profound songwriting and masterful piano, but a body of work of which Tom is immensely proud.
His latest release from the album is ‘Butterflies’, a tender, endearing track featuring Norwegian singer-songwriter AURORA. ‘Butterflies’ is a dedication to pure love and the tender lyrical declaration is complimented by the elegant blend of their voices, highlighting their natural synergy.
 
Listen to ‘Butterflies’ (feat. AURORA) HERE.
 
Tom’s hit single ‘Another Love’ continues to reach stratospheric heights, being recently certified RIAA Platinum by surpassing 1 billion Spotify streams in 2022, an incredible milestone achieved by just 200 artists (The track currently has well over 1.5 billion streams, with an increase of half a billion streams in the past 6 months). The track recently entered the Top 10 in the UK Official Singles Chart after weeks of featuring in the Top 20. The single had a phenomenal resurgence this year with the sound often being used in videos covering the crisis in Ukraine. Subsequently, Tom performed the single at ITV’s Concert For Ukraine in April that raised over £13.4m (over $15 million), performing it at the train station in Bucharest to raise awareness and money for Ukrainian refugees. Tom joined forces with GRAMMY® Award-winning producer Tiësto for a special remix of the track, with all proceeds going to the charity, Choose LoveListen to the Tiësto Remix of ‘Another Love’ HERE.
 
Additionally, Tom featured in Billboard’s Global 200 Artists of 2022 ahead of Rosalia, Charlie Puth and Arctic Monkeys and is one of the top 15 British artists worldwide across streaming platforms. He is also currently sitting at No. 34 in the Global Digital Artist rankings. His continued creative development and dedication to his audience is propelling him forward at an exponential rate, ensuring 2023 will be another exciting year. 
 
Stay tuned for more new music and news from Tom Odell, coming soon.

ABOUT TOM ODELL
Singer, songwriter and musician, Tom Odell was propelled straight to the forefront of the mainstream when his debut EP, Songs From Another Love, was released in 2012, catching mass attention and leading him to win a BRITs Critics’ Choice Award in 2013 and a place in BBC’s coveted Sound Of list. Later that year, his platinum-selling debut album Long Way Down was released to critical acclaim and went straight to #1 on the UK Albums Chart. Rightfully praised for his songwriting prowess, in 2014 Tom won the prestigious title of Songwriter Of The Year at the Ivor Novello Awards before his stunning cover of The Beatles’ ‘Real Love’ accompanied the highly anticipated and long-cherished John Lewis Christmas advert. Tom went on to release his second studio album, Wrong Crowd, in 2016, which charted at #2 and is BPI certified Gold, and his third studio album, Jubilee Road, was released in 2018. Tom’s dedicated work ethic became an obsession that culminated in crippling anxiety, leading to a dark period of mental health that Tom wrote his way through. These broader lyrical horizons needed to be matched by a musical expansion, coming in the form of his genre-bending 2021 fourth studio album, Monsters, the final album to fulfil his major label record deal with Columbia Records. The album’s DIY and electronic sound was crafted in a threadbare way using instruments he had to hand during the height of the pandemic like Moog synths - a move underpinned by both necessity and a desire to explore. Now an independent artist, free from the constraints of a major label, Tom Odell has stripped things back. Armed with a newfound sense of freedom and creative control, this new era of Tom’s career sees him take focus off hooks and strategy and instead create an environment where his audience can sit with the music and breathe. The result is a work of minimalist beauty, comprising just Tom’s voice, a piano and the occasional creak of a stool.
