‘Butterflies’ New Single From Tom Odell
Tom Odell is back with a new heartwarming track, Butterflies, featuring singer-songwriter AURORA. The song is the latest single for the award-winning British artist following his latest album, Best Day Of My Life, released on October 28, 2022.
Tom shared his excitement for the release of the track and the opportunity to collaborate with AURORA on the piece stating, “I have been a fan of Aurora and her music for many years and it was a dream come true to make this song together. It's a song about spending the day with somebody you really like and at the end of the day having to say goodbye to them, not knowing if you will ever see them again, but being happy for the experience regardless.”
Best Day Of My Life is the fifth studio album for the artist and has received rave reviews for its songwriting and creativity. Tom stated, “I've never done an album that was just on the piano, and I thought it would be exciting. So, the whole album, there’s no other instrument on it. It is just piano and my voice. That was really incredible to work with those restrictions.”
After completing his 2021 record deal, Tom set out to create music the way he wanted - an independent means to showcase creativity and individuality through song. Tom is now an independent artist and feels a sense of freedom from the binds of contractual agreements stating, “I feel so free, so liberated to be an independent artist. There’s a huge amount of relief in this music, of just getting to do exactly what I want to do.”
Tom has reached global success for his track Another Love; Tom amassed over one billion Spotify streams in 2022, a feat only accomplished by 200 performers. In addition, Tom performed the song at Concert For Ukraine in the spring of 2022 to raise money for Ukrainian refugees. The concert brought in over $15m for those in need.
After the release of Best Day Of My Life, Tom traveled through Europe and the UK, performing for eager fans along the way. Tom has confirmed he will perform at Bottlerock Festival on May 26, 2023, in Napa Valley, California. Tickets for the event are on sale now.
Tom currently holds the #111th position on Spotify for listeners worldwide.
