ABOUT ODESZA

Electronic music duo Odesza is formed of Harrison Mills and Clayton Knight, aka Catacombkid and BeachesBeaches. The pair met during their freshman year at Western Washington University where they studied physics and mathematics and graphic design, respectively. In 2012, the two were in their senior year. Shortly before graduating, they began collaborating together musically.

The project is named after Mills' uncle's vessel, which was named after the Ukrainian city of Odesa. After the boat sank, only his uncle and one other crewmate survived.
