Odette Michell will be accompanied at the Green Note by Rory Innerd on the fiddle and mandolin, and will also be joined by very special guest Phil Beer from multi-award winning acoustic duo Show of Hands, for a show not to be missed.
Things have been moving at something of a pace for Odette ever since she released her debut album ‘The Wildest Rose’ in April 2019. The album gained widespread positive 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).
By the end of 2019, ‘The Wildest Rose’ had been chosen as one of the ’10 Best Albums of 2019′ by Johnny Coppin on BBC Radio Gloucestershire, Somerset, Wiltshire, Bristol & BBC Sounds, and became one of the ‘Recommended Albums Of 2019’ and ‘Magnificent Seven Of 2019’ on Blues & Roots Radio, as well as ‘Album Of The Year’ on the Readifolk Radio Show.
Born in Yorkshire with an Irish heritage, Odette grew up in a musical household and first picked up the guitar at fifteen. Inspired by the resurgence of folk and acoustic songwriters at the time, she began writing her own songs when she was just sixteen years old. 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.
A dynamic live performer, Odette has recently opened for folk legends Phil Beer, Martin Carthy, Reg Meuross, Boo Hewerdine and BBC R2 Folk Award nominees Ninebarrow amongst others, and is now currently touring the UK in support of the new album. She performs mostly solo, and with her duo and trio.
