2021 studio album by Odette
Herald is the second studio album by Australian musician Odette , released on 5 February 2021 through EMI Music Australia .
Supported by the singles "Feverbreak", "Dwell", and "Amends" and "Trial by Fire"—Herald debuted and peaked at number 47 on the ARIA Albums Chart .
At the 2021 ARIA Music Awards , the album was nominated for Best Adult Contemporary Album and Best Blues & Roots Album and Eben Ejdne was nominated for Best Cover Art for this release.[2]

Background
[ edit ]
The album follows on three years after Odette's debut album, To a Stranger (2018), which received high critical acclaim and two ARIA Awards nominations in the year of release .[3]
Discussing the album in a press release, Odette stated:
"This album is sort of a nuanced discussion of the positives and the negatives of mental illness and also just being a human being. It talks about the realities of hurting others, the consequences of that, and even more so, it holds me accountable—it holds me to my word."[3]
Recording
[ edit ]
Odette collaborated with producer Damian Taylor during recording sessions, who previously produced her debut album.[4]
Composition
[ edit ]
The album as a whole discusses themes of transitioning from adolescence to adulthood,[4] and mental health ,[5] whilst "Dwell" is "anchored in Odette's own [sic ] reflections on grief and the manifestations of emotional negativity."[6]
In an interview with Triple J , Odette described the album as focussed sonically around "a classic scale with electronic elements."[1]
