A fresh and unfiltered voice known for delivering sharp and beautifully executed content, his debut show #BlackBearsMatter won Best Show at both the 2019 Leicester Comedy Festivals and achieved critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Fringe 2019, earning him a nomination for Best Newcomer in the Dave Edinburgh Comedy Awards.
In 2022 he released his first stand up special Michael Odewale: Live at Soho Theatre for Amazon Prime and has since gone on to work on a host of shows including Dreaming Whilst Black (BBC), Cunk on Earth (BBC), Death to 2022 (Netflix) and Ben Elton’s Friday Night Live (C4).
