Earlier this summer, Beck and Phoenix marked the kick-off of their hotly anticipated Summer Odyssey Tour with the physical release of their collaborative sun-splashed banger, “Odyssey.”
The Summer Odyssey Tour arrives at Merriweather Post Pavilion on Sunday, Sept. 10.
Three minutes and 47 seconds of sheer audio bliss, “Odyssey” is written, produced and performed by Beck and Phoenix, and mixed by Serban Ghenea. Beck and Thomas Mars nimbly trade lead vocals on the song’s verses, with the full cast joining to create the irresistible earworms of its choruses and each “Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah” singalong refrain. The result is two unmistakable sonic signatures combining to create something beyond the sum of its parts.
Watch a visualizer for “Odyssey” by Beck and Phoenix on YouTube:
“Odyssey,” the Beck and Phoenix collaborative single, was hailed by UPROXX as “an empowered, shimmering anthem” and by FLOOD as “a joyful slice of hedonistic disco-pop.” The “Odyssey”/“Odyssey (Instrumental)” 7” is from the Beck, Phoenix, and Capitol Records online stores, select retailers, and of course at venues throughout the Summer Odyssey Tour.
