My Australia: Singer Odette on how her mixed heritage sparked an identity crisis

My Australia is a special series exploring cultural heritage and identity, and asking what it means to be Australian in 2019.
Born to a British father and a South African mother, and having migrated to Sydney from the United Kingdom at age three, singer-songwriter 'Odette'  has long struggled to define herself.

But, as she prepares to embark on an international tour following the release of her debut album last year, the 21-year-old says she's finally made peace with her identity.
