“I’m just looking to add a soundtrack to people’s lives and continue to try new things.” These are the words from the multi-hyphenate creative Odiseas Georgiadis as we spoke following the release of his debut single ‘amnesia.’

The release marks Odiseas official introduction into the music industry, after already making a name for himself as an actor. His filmography includes movies like The Perfect Date (2019) and the Netflix original series Trinkets (2019-2020). Although he has been in movies and tv shows that have been seen by over 40 million people worldwide, Odiseas proclaims that music is first for him.

Odiseas knew music was destined for him at an early age. Born in Ghana, he relocated to the United States with his family at the age of six. Growing up in Brooklyn, New York, Odiseas passion for music started when he received a guitar as a gift at the age of nine. At age 10, he began recording covers of popular songs. Reflecting on these early moments in our conversations, Odiseas stated “Music is something I feel like it is in me, it’s in my bones.”

Odiseas journey in the music industry has not been the smoothest of sailings. He faced a few setbacks early on. When he was just fifteen years old, he was a contestant on The Voice. And though his stint on the talent search show did not last long, it led to his being discovered by his first manager in the music business. However, failed management partnerships resulted in Odiseas not releasing any music.

Things began to change in 2021 when Odiseas connected with producer, songwriter, and vocalist Dean Maupin. One of Maupin’s music videos caught the attention of Odiseas, so he reached out to connect via Instagram. Soon after, they partnered up to become a dynamic duo, and began collaborating on music.

“Amnesia” is the brainchild of both Odiseas and collaborator Dean Maupin. Together, they wrote, produced, and performed on the Hip-Hop infused Pop single. “Amnesia” is a song about trying to rebound after a breakup in which the ex-lover pretends the relationship never existed. The duo pours out heartfelt lyrics over a high energy bouncy track. The relatability of the song’s message combined with the execution of the production, highlights Odiseas and Dean Maupin’s ability to create hit music.

Odiseas views “Amnesia” as the catalyst to dropping more music with Dean Maupin, as well as his solo material. When asked what is next for him musically, Odiseas stated that an EP could be on the horizon.
