ODESZA have masterfully returned to remind the world what has made them the cornerstones of the modern electronic landscape. The production duo (Harrison Mills and Clayton Knight) began their meteoric journey when they first met at Western Washington University in Bellingham, WA. They released their debut album Summer's Gone in 2012, a critically acclaimed project they completed near the end of their tenure at Western. It was followed by 2014's certified gold record, In Return, which debuted at the top of Billboard’s Dance/Electronic chart and featured platinum single “Say My Name” – a remix of the track by RAC was later nominated for a Grammy in 2016.
In 2017, ODESZA returned with their much anticipated third full length album A Moment Apart, which in turn also went gold & received two Grammy nominations, for Best Dance/Electronic Album and Best Dance Recording for the gold single “Line Of Sight”, along with debuting at #3 on the Billboard Top 200. For A Moment Apart, Mills and Knight collaborated with Regina Spektor, Leon Bridges and RY X, among others.
Over the course of those 10 years, the duo skyrocketed from playing clubs to just their friends, to cultivating a diehard fanbase of massive proportions. They’ve become known for their groundbreaking, awe-inspiring live performance, that reached 2.85m+ fans over the course of their ‘A Moment Apart’ tour. Spanning 145+ shows across 25+ countries, with multi-night sold-out runs at Barclays Center, Red Rocks and the LA State Historic Park, it culminated in headline performances at the likes of Coachella, Lollapalooza & more, along with the launch of their own annual destination festival in Riviera Maya, Mexico. They've built their appeal through streaming - amassing over 4.8B+ streams – and their revolutionary live show featuring production of epic scale, interweaving an 11-piece ensemble that includes a horn section and a full marching-band drumline.
In 2020, Mills and Knight joined forces with ARIA-platinum selling Australian producer, Golden Features (Tom Stell), to form passion project, electronic powerhouse titled BRONSON, whose namesake album received international critical acclaim among fans and electronic music tastemakers alike - including John Digweed, Pete Tong, Zane Lowe, and Anja Schneider.
In February 2022, Mills and Knight re-emerged with the release their first new music as ODESZA in nearly four years, “The Last Goodbye” — - a cinematic triumph that features acclaimed blues & soul singer Bettye LaVette.
