Odyssey 50th Anniversary Tour with Special guest Romina Johnson

2027 will be Odyssey’s 50th anniversary of the release of Native New Yorker.

Come celebrate the Legacy of this legendary group

THE GLORY DAYS of top vocal group 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. Additionally, Lillian’s eldest son, Steven Collazo had become part of Odyssey behind the scenes, 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”, which shot to the top ten, followed by “If You’re Looking For  A Way Out”, “Inside Out”, and the Lamont Dozier classic “Going Back To My Roots”, among others.

Performing around the UK, Europe and The Middle East through the 80’s and into the 90’s, the journey continued. In 1994, Steven moved up to co-front the group and produce new versions of the Odyssey classics while appearing with Lillian on television, touring the arenas, top hotels, clubs, major holiday resorts and festivals throughout the UK and Europe.

The founder and first voice of Odyssey, Lillian Lopez-Collazo Jackson, died of cancer on September 4th, 2012.  Louise Lopez passed away from natural causes January 28th, 2015 .

Steven Collazo continues the family legacy, taking their “odyssey” forward and further as a brand with an array of talented singers,

The journey continues into the 21st century while keeping an eye towards the classic sound which made ODYSSEY famous.
