Enjoyed a stunning evening out at the first public performance at Odeon Richmond.
Jodi Phillis (ably supported by Stephanie Cherote) treated a full house to a whole batch of new unreleased tracks from her latest work in progress, a project about Vali Myers and her partner Gianni Menichetta.
Odeon’s surround sound system was put to great use and through Jodi’s judicious incorporation of minimalist backing tracks, really showed off this gorgeously evocative new material.
The audience pulled in their chairs nice and close to absorb every nuance. You could’ve heard a pin drop. Latecomers politely waited in the foyer and then joined us between songs.
It’s an absolute joy to see once more there is a venue where it’s all about the musical experience and the artists come first…
At Odeon Richmond, I know I’ve found my happy place.
Because the bulk of what we were treated to is as yet unreleased, it can’t be shared (you had to be there!) but here are 4 tracks that Jodi has kindly aproved for public viewing.
Thank you Jodi for such a brilliant performance.
