The superstar EDM duo returns to Madison, this time for their biggest show yet. Already well on the path to stardom by the time of their 2015 Orpheum show, Harrison Mills and Clayton Knight this week visit the Alliant Center with an entire album’s worth of new material. A Moment Apart, released in September, shows signs of artistic maturity. They don't forget to create an upbeat jam such as “Boy,” but are also content to take things slower, as with “Just A Memory,” made whole by haunting vocals from none other than Regina Spektor. With Sofi Tukker, Kasbo.

press release: Celebrated electronic duo ODESZA (Harrison Mills, Clayton Knight) have rushed out the release of new single "Higher Ground (feat. Naomi Wild)" after it was leaked. The song is off their highly anticipated third album, 'A Moment Apart', to be released September 8 on Counter Records (Ninja Tune imprint). The track shows off the ODESZA signature of dynamic chord progressions that open into sweeping cinematic soundscapes, punctuated by ecstatic, thumping percussion.
"Higher Ground" by Odesza with Naomi Wild
"'Higher Ground' came together in a special way for us," say Mills and Knight. "We were on a writing trip out in Lake Chelan, WA when we first heard Naomi's voice. We started adding rhythm and chords and everything just fell into place. It was one of those rare moments where the song felt like it wrote itself. This is one of our favorite tracks off the album and we're excited to share it with you."
