Chris O'Dell

Worked at Apple, was at Rooftop Concert

Chris O’Dell The former Apple secretary and one of rock’s first female tour managers, was in the studio when the Beatles recorded The White Album, Abbey Road, and Let It Be, and sang on the chorus of the final cut for “Hey Jude.” Chris worked at Apple Records and was at the historic Rooftop Concert on Jan. 30, 1969.

At the Fest, the documentary on the life and career of Chris, titled “Miss O’Dell,” will be screened.

She’s George Harrison’s “Miss O’Dell”, the famous B-side to “Give Me Love,” his No.1 single from 1973.

Chris’ memoir from 2010, Miss O’Dell, is the remarkable story of an ordinary woman who became a part of rock royalty’s trusted inner circle. Miss O’Dell is a backstage pass to some of the most momentous events in rock history, and is the ultimate fly-on-the-wall rock memoir. We look forward to welcoming Chris back to The FEST.
