Tom Odell

How have I only just heard about this guy??

Tom Odell is a British singer/songwriter signed with Columbia Records. When asked, Columbia Records have said "Using his piano as his weapon of choice , each track rains down the pain second, by second." With an album due to be released next year, all we have, for now, is his recently released EP " The Songs From Another Love."  This 4 song collection is by no means upbeat, but rather an offering of pure heart ache and feeling.

Having supported Jake Bugg on his tour last month (November),  it is only a matter of time before Tom Odell starts to build up his own fan base. Dubbed as the next Jeff Buckley, Tom Odell has made the shortlist for both Brits Critics Choice and BBC sound of 2013.

Go on, check him out - everyone else has!
