He broke through the scene in 2014 with ‘Is It A Banger,’ which has gained millions of streams and has set the tone for what to expect from the artist in the following years. Mirroring the success of his breakthrough track, his 2022 single ‘LEFT TO RIGHT’ has brought the Brisbane-based artist back to the spotlight, gaining massive support from industry heavyweights John Summit, Dom Dolla, Diplo, Chris Lake, and many more. From performing at EDC Las Vegas to taking the stage at Coachella earlier this year, Odd Mob’s eyes are all set on the HARD Stage.
