March 23, 2017 — Leslie Odom Jr. is an actor and singer who, portraying Aaron Burr in the hit Broadway show Hamilton, won the Tony Award last year for Best Actor in a musical. Odom self-released his debut album, Leslie Odom Jr., in 2014, but re-released an expanded version on S-Curve Records last year which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Jazz chart. The record includes a variety of jazz and soul productions, all topped by Odom’s incredibly warm, nuanced and gifted vocals.
We feature here the track “The Guilty Ones,” a simply stunning ballad highlighting the sweet, high end of Odom’s range. He has a voice that will bring you back for more. Enjoy.
