Book NowTom Odell is a British singer-songwriter and pianist known for his emotionally rich ballads and haunting vocals. He rose to prominence in 2012 with the release of his debut EP, Songs from Another Love, which showcased his poetic lyricism and classical influences. His breakout single “Another Love” became a worldwide hit and remains one of his most-streamed tracks, resonating deeply with fans for its heartfelt intensity and timeless piano-driven melody. Born in Chichester, West Sussex, Odell trained in classical piano before immersing himself in the world of indie rock and singer-songwriter storytelling. In 2013, he released his debut album Long Way Down, which went straight to number one on the UK Albums Chart and earned him the prestigious BRITs Critics’ Choice Award. The album featured other fan favourites like “Grow Old with Me” and “Hold Me,” quickly cementing his reputation as one of the most compelling new voices in British music. Since then, Tom Odell has continued to evolve. His follow-up albums — Wrong Crowd (2016), Jubilee Road (2018), and Monsters (2021) — each explored new emotional and sonic terrain, blending intimate piano balladry with experimental production and personal storytelling. His latest album, Black Friday (2024), strips everything back to its core: sparse, raw, and deeply introspective. Tracks like “Black Friday” and “Answer Phone” have earned critical praise for their honesty and delicate arrangements, placing Odell firmly among the great singer-songwriters of his generation. Odell’s live shows are known for their emotional intensity and refined minimalism. Accompanied primarily by piano and subtle accompaniment, his concerts feel more like shared experiences than traditional gigs. Whether he’s singing about heartbreak, anxiety, or fleeting joy, there’s an intimate vulnerability to every performance that invites the audience into his world. The 2025 stop at 3Arena is the only Irish date on his Black Friday Tour — a rare opportunity for Irish fans to hear the new album live, along with treasured older tracks. The Dublin show will feature a specially curated setlist and a stunning visual presentation that complements the emotional palette of the music.About Tom Odell
