So excited to announce that legendary disco act ODYSSEY will visit Strings on Friday 06 March 2026! Odyssey, one of the most successful soul/disco acts of their era, culminated in the early 1980’s when they topped the charts with “Use It Up and Wear It Out”, scoring several other Top Ten hits in Britain and throughout the world.
From their debut album emerged their first smash single - “Native New Yorker”, an international hit late in 1977. Frontman and son of original member Lillian Lopez, Steven Collazo, had become part of Odyssey behind the scenes from its inception, recording as a background vocalist, journeyman session musician and musical director for their live performances and tours. A couple of years later, the group cut their “Hang Together” album. It contained “Use It Up and Wear It Out”, while the flipside, “Don’t Tell Me, Tell Her” received major airplay on US Black Radio. In the UK, “Use It Up” shot to the top ten and number one chart hit, followed by “If You’re Looking For A Way Out”, “Inside Out”, and the Lamont Dozier classic “Going Back To My Roots”, among others.
This is going to be an incredible show that will have you dancing and grooving all night! To make this even better, Odyssey will be performing as an 8 piece band !! . . .
Tickets are going to fly out so don’t miss this opportunity! Available now on our website or via the app!
