Odette Releases New Single ‘Amends’

Australian singer Odette has given fans another taste of her forthcoming album via new track Amends.

The single is the third taken from Herald, which is set for release on February 5, following on from last year’s Dwell and Feverbreak.

“Amends is a song I wrote during a period of unwellness,” Odette said.

“I was hurting myself and the people I loved with a cruel disregard. This song is about trying and persevering even when you feel like you’ve already failed.”

On Amends’ accompanying film clip, Odette noted: “This video represents the changes I have experienced over the last few years. It’s a statement about my yearning for guidance and coming to terms with how it feels to be alive in all is complexities.

“I made the clay and fabric puppets for this video, I wrote the treatment and I was involved in the final edit. Working with older women was important to me for this, purely because I wanted to connect and learn. 

“I guess I had this notion that ‘if they can do this, live their lives and still be so ethereal and enigmatic, then surely I can handle what comes my way’. I have a long way to go but this video marks the start of my journey towards kindness.”
