Today, ODESZA announces ‘The Last Goodbye Tour Live’ – the GRAMMY-nominees’ forthcoming live album set for release on May 31 via Foreign Family Collective/Ninja Tune. For the first time in their career, ODESZA will be releasing live versions of their songs as a fully cohesive album, bringing to life the nearly-indescribable magic of their expansive and immersive concert experience.
The album will be offered on 3LP Ghostly Clear Vinyl, housed in a bespoke trifold sleeve with a center die-cut. The package contains three interchangeable matte varnish inner sleeves that allow fans to choose their own cover. Preorder is available now on ODESZA’s store.

Produced and engineered by ODESZA (the duo of Harrison Mills and Clayton Knight), ‘The Last Goodbye Tour Live’ was recorded throughout their monumental 2022-2023 The Last Goodbye Tour, the first amphitheater tour ever attempted by an electronic act. Referred to as VIP edits, almost every song has been thoughtfully revised and rearranged deliberately for the live show and ODESZA’s creativity and ingenuity is abundantly clear throughout the album. ‘The Last Goodbye Tour Live’ is complete with the ODESZA Drumline, two horn players, and a rotating cast of vocalists including Naomi Wild, Sudan Archives, Izzy Bizu, MARO, Mansionair and Charlie Houston. |

To tease the record, ODESZA has released two singles today – “Forgive Me (Live) (feat. Izzy Bizu)” and “A Moment Apart (Live) (ODESZA VIP Remix)”. The band has also shared a video of “Forgive Me (Live) (feat. Izzy Bizu)”, a visual illustration of the nostalgia and community that has surrounded the tour. “We’re endlessly grateful to our incredible fans who have attended our shows over the years!” said Harrison and Clay. “Your energy and support inspires us to do what we do. We love the opportunity to reinterpret our work for the live show setting and share it with you on stage. Through the release of these live recordings, we hope that people will be able to revisit and relive the live performances that have brought us so much joy and connection throughout our careers.” The forthcoming live album will showcase why ODESZA have become live music must-sees, having headlined nearly every major music festival over the past few years (including Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Outside Lands, Austin City Limits, Electric Forest, Gov Ball, and others). The live album will precede ODESZA’s massive The Last Goodbye Finale tour dates taking place this summer and capping the duo’s incredible current musical era. ODESZA is set to end the current chapter on their career on a major high note, with numerous dates, many of which are sold out, in iconic rooms such as Madison Square Garden, The Greek Theatre Berkeley, BMO Stadium, The Gorge and Folsom Field. While on the road, ODESZA has partnered with nonprofits PLUS1 and REVERB to support them and other diverse organizations working for climate sustainability, equity, access, and dignity for all. ODESZA and REVERB are continuing their partnership at shows to reduce the environmental footprint of their tour and take action on the climate crisis. In addition to a comprehensive tour sustainability program, fans will have the ability to join the effort by visiting ODESZA’s Action Village at every show.
