Info

\\n

ODi\'s story began when she uploaded some home recordings to My Space. People here, there and everywhere began to listen to her songs, loved what they heard and asked when her next gig was.

\\n

Inspired by this and armed with a beautiful, raw, voice, a cheap guitar, won on ebay, and her heart on her sleeve, ODi headed down to her local venue to blag her first gig. Her story has grown from there \\u2026.

\\n

\\u2026Two years on, ODi was invited to support Seth Lakeman at the Beverley Folk Festival. Along the way, the hard working Wexford woman has played over 200 gigs across the UK, Ireland and Germany. Released 2 well received singles "Crawl" and "What You Deserve" whilst developing an ever growing fanbase. She\\u2019s also managed to trade in the cheap guitar for a better one!

\\n

Her captivating voice and well crafted songs have already been likened to those of Suzanne Vega and Natalie Merchant. The musical landscapes on her recordings hinting towards a female version of Damien Rice, with a touch of PJ Harvey thrown in for good measure.

\\n

October sees ODi bring her new EP \\u201cA Superman\\u201d to the UK. The 5 Tracker features production input from Ken McHugh aka Autamata, (Juno Falls, David Kitt) and Karl Odlum (Fionn Regan , The Frames, Gemma Hayes)

\\n

Released in Ireland during summer 2008 The title track received national and regional airplay across the Emerald isle including a feature as \\u2018download of the day\\u2019 on The Tony Fenton\\u2019s Today FM show. The EP also brought praise from Irish publications including Hot Press and the Galway Advertiser amongst others.

\\n

ODi comes off the back of a 30 date Irish tour and heads to the UK for dates in September to promote the release of \\u201cA Superman\\u201d

\\n

She then enters the studio in late 2008 to record her debut album, due for release in summer 2009.
