Description

Odette Michell is an award-winning British singer-songwriter, guitarist and bouzouki player with a strong foothold in the folk tradition. In April 2019, Odette released her debut album ?The Wildest Rose? to widespread acclaim followed by a string of live interviews, and featured notable musical contributions from Phil Beer (one-half of multi-award-winning acoustic folk band Show of Hands), and Toby Shaer (Cara Dillon, Sam Kelly & The Lost Boys).
The result is a compelling, highly impressive debut that both soars and impresses. fRoots Magazine named it "one of the stand-out debuts of 2019", and by the end of 2019 it was included in the '10 Best Albums of 2019' by Johnny Coppin on BBC Sounds, as well as becoming one of the 'Recommended Albums Of 2019' on Blues and Roots Radio. In January 2020 RNR Magazine touted Odette as one of their 'Top Tips For 2020'. In January 2020 Odette won Female Artist Of The Year at the 2019 FATEA Awards, following in the footsteps of previous winners Kitty Macfarlane and Cara Dillon, respectively; and was soon after nominated for a Rising Star Award at the 2020 Folking Awards. In January 2021 Odette was invited to perform at Celtic Connections as part of the legendary Danny Kyle Open Stage.
A dynamic and prolific live performer, Odette has performed alongside the likes of Show of Hands and Seth Lakeman, and has opened for folk legends Martin Carthy, Phil Beer, Boo Hewerdine, Nancy Kerr, Reg Meuross and BBC R2 Folk Award nominees Ninebarrow amongst many others.
