TOM ODELL will be appearing in Dalby Forest this summer as part of Forest Live! and the Gazette & Herald has two pairs of tickets for readers to win.
His platinum-selling debut album Long Way Down went straight to number one with singles including Can’t Pretend, Hold Me and Another Love, illustrating a song-writing maturity beyond his years.
This has resulted in him achieving the ultimate industry accolade of Songwriter of the Year at the 2014 Ivor Novello Awards, as well as previously winning the BRIT’s Critics’ Choice Award for 2013.
Chosen to perform the soundtrack to John Lewis Christmas advert, the 24-year-old added his vocals to a cover of John Lennon’s classic Real Love, generating millions of YouTube views.
Tom is currently in the studio recording his new album.
Forest Live is an independent programme organised by the Forestry Commission to bring forests to new audiences.
Income generated from ticket sales is spent on protecting, improving and expanding England’s forests and woodlands and increasing their value to people and wildlife.
Over Forest Live’s 14-year history, money raised has contributed to a wide range of projects, from wildlife conservation to making improvements for visitors.
With everything required for a great night out, including full catering and bar facilities, the gigs are renowned for their relaxed atmosphere.
