English born Australian singer Odette, her birth name Georgia Odette Sallybanks, sang with a keyboard and a band comprising a drummer and another keyboard and synthesiser player.
She played just one cover song playing, Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Rhiannon’ which she performed with style.
The rest of the songs were her original material of which she has plenty of. Odette started writing songs from the age of 8. Her first album ‘To A Stranger’ (July 2018) peaked at No 13 on the Aria Albums Chart. It was also nominated for Best Adult contemporary Album.
The highlight of the night was her rendition of her song ‘Watch Me Read You’. This was a piano ballad with sharp, poetic lyrics.
The concert went for just under an hour. Odette admitted to being a. little uncomfortable and phased playing to an empty audience but made the most of the difficult situation.
Odette in concert was live streamed from Riverside Theatres, Parramatta on Sunday evening, 6th September, 2020.
