Leslie Odom Jr. won the 2016 Tony Award for Leading Actor in a Musical for his star-making turn in the smash hit Broadway musical Hamilton, for which he also received the 2015 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album as a principal soloist on the original cast recording. His self-titled debut jazz album, Leslie Odom Jr., was released June 10th on S-Curve Records and debuted at #1 on Soundscan's Current Jazz and Traditional Jazz charts. The 10-track collection features Odom's soulful new interpretations of beloved songs that have been longtime favorites of his. Standout tracks on the album include Odom's ethereal rendition of the Jerome Kern gem "Look for the Silver Lining," a new arrangement of "The Guilty Ones" from Spring Awakening, a stunning percussion and piano-driven version of "Love Look Away" and his inspired take on the timeless classic "Autumn Leaves."
