Odesza Teases Euphoric New Single During Show In Boise, Listen Here
We were just a week away from two glorious nights of Odesza at Red Rocks in Colorado. The duo had been heavily pushing the show on socials, so fans could definitely expect to hear a lot of new music — just like they did the night before in Boise, Idaho.
Down Right Euphoric Beats
Odesza had released two new singles a few weeks earlier. While they differed in style from each other, they both rang true to form as Odesza masterpieces. Fans immediately wanted more — who could blame them? It had been three years since the duo’s last drop of new music, excluding their remix of Alex Adair’s “Make Me Feel Better,” which was never officially released and only performed at live shows.
That night though, the guys tore down Boise, and during their set they dropped this tasty bit of magic. This sounds like the Odesza we’d been waiting for — pitched and filtered vocals, euphoric melodies, and all the bass your heart could desire. Check it out below.

The Tease Became “Line Of Sight”
That unreleased snippet from Boise turned out to be an early look at “Line Of Sight,” which Odesza officially released the following month, in June 2017, alongside a post-apocalyptic music video. The track went on to become part of their third studio album, A Moment Apart, released that September, and remains one of the most beloved cuts from that era of the duo’s catalog.
Red Rocks Delivered
The two Red Rocks shows that followed lived up to the hype, with Odesza continuing to debut new material from the upcoming album throughout the run. Between the Boise teaser and the Red Rocks shows, it was clear Odesza was gearing up for one of the biggest releases of their career.
A Duo Built On Slow Rollouts
Harrison Mills and Clayton Knight, the duo behind Odesza, have always taken their time between albums, letting singles trickle out and evolve on stage before ever committing to a studio version. That patience paid off with A Moment Apart, which debuted in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 and helped push the duo firmly into the headliner tier of festival lineups.
