Odette Michell Album Launch with Special Guests Phil Beer & Stu Hanna

Event information

“One of the brightest new names to have emerged full-grown on the country’s folk scene in recent years” FOLK RADIO UK
​
Odette Michell is an award-winning British singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist with a rich foothold in the folk tradition.

Odette Michell will be releasing her much-anticipated second studio album ‘The Queen of the Lowlands’ with a very special limited capacity album launch at Heath Street Baptist Church, London on the 11th June.

The album was recorded and produced by four-times BBC Radio 2 Folk Award Nominee Stu Hanna (Megson), and features some extremely special guests, including duets with Ninebarrow, Calum Gilligan and Daria Kulesh; as well as notable musical contributions from Chris Leslie (Fairport/Albion Band); Phil Beer (Show of Hands); Lukas Drinkwater, and Vicki Swan.

Odette will be accompanied at the launch event by multi-instrumentalists Phil Beer (Show of Hands) on fiddle and Stu Hanna on mandolin and backing vocals.

‘The Queen of the Lowlands’ is an entirely self-penned album that expertly weaves tales of both the personal and the historical.

Captivated by the true story of the ‘Queen of the Netherlands’ – the ‘hero ship’ that rescued and repatriated many thousands of soldiers during WW1; Odette delves into both our collective history and her own personal history to bring forth an album that truly captivates, informs and enchants in equal measure.
