ODD LUKE Releases Debut Song “Disconnect”
Glasgow-based singer-songwriter ODD LUKE released his debut song “Disconnect” on July 16, 2024 via Verdigris Records.
ODD LUKE, also known as Andy Black, is a session guitarist for some of the UK's biggest stars.
The song is about disconnecting from your phone, social media and escaping the mundanities of the modern day-to-day.
The track was written and produced by Andy Black and Stewart Brock, who recorded at Octagon Studios in Brixton.
ODD LUKE said of the song, “I'd been listening to a lot of Still Woozy and Lil Yachty's INCREDIBLE 'Let's Start Here' album, which is perhaps where a lot of the inspiration for the overall vibe came from. Story-wise, I'd returned from a pint with an old friend one night, who had just had - what I thought would have been - a bad break up. His outlook on it really was just something you don't hear a lot. Positive, but essentially, he disconnected from his phone completely, from people who always wanted to talk about it, from overthinking things and just generally from the weight of life and social media, the news etc. Easier said than done - but the whole thing generally made me feel so much lighter.”- He added, “I'd also watched Fight Club again for the first time in years and my mind was blown in understanding it a lot more - so there's a subtle reference in there to trying to escape the mundane by disconnecting from the day to day. No Tyler Durden in this case though!”
