Research into my chosen artist

Tom Odell is a 24 year old singer song writer who performs music of the genre Indie Pop. He is signed to Columbia records and In the Name Of. He became the first ever male artist to win the coveted BRITS Critics’ Choice Award in 2013. Tom Odell released his EP Songs from Another Love and his debut LP, Long Way Down. He began studying piano classically at age seven and was writing his own songs by twelve. Tom Odell doesn't have many music videos for his songs but when he does they are normally performance videos with a low budget setting.



An example of a performance music video of Tom Odell's is the music video for 'Real Love'. This shows a low budget setting of a studio which is based in a room that looks a bit like a garage or storage room. The instruments are acoustic and not electric to suits the generic conventions of indie pop.
