Today, Grammy and Tony Award-winning vocalist, songwriter, author and actor Leslie Odom, Jr. has released a brand-new version of his song “Cold” featuring nine-time Grammy-nominated and multi-platinum artist Sia – listen HERE. The track is off the singer’s third full-length album and first of original material, Mr., which was released in November 2019.
Threading together elements of soul, R&B, jazz, and pop, Mr. holds a singular style as powerful and passionate as it is personal. “Cold” is “a hopeful ballad with a beautiful melody,” NPR proclaims. The re-recorded, new version, in collaboration with longtime friend Sia, was created in the virtual studio through remote sessions, utilizing technology to bring the two together despite geographical distance during this time.
Additionally, Leslie is set to star in Sia’s forthcoming motion picture and directorial debut, Music, alongside Kate Hudson and Maddie Ziegler. “Cold” featuring Sia is available everywhere now.
