Bodhi Jones

Bodhi Jones spent his early years with his mother and sister on Saltspring Island. He affectionately refers to it as a "1980's hippie paradise" and says spending his childhood there was an "amazingly magical experience". Shortly after his tenth birthday he and his mom moved from Saltspring to Vancouver in search of greater opportunity, during this time Bodhi felt overwhelmed by the big city and became very isolated. He was often sick and spent a lot of time home alone...it was during these pre-teen years that he truly discovered his passion for music.

Over the past 6 years, Bodhi has recorded 5 EP's and 3 full length albums, selling over 12 000 copies while performing on the streets of downtown Vancouver. In 2009 Bodhi was selected as Virgin Radio's "BC artist of the month", voted into The Peak Performance Project's Top 20, and named Vancouver's best busker by The Georgia Straight. 2010 has brought even more exposure his way: Earning a second consecutive selection in The Peak Performance Project's Top 20 and being voted into Red Robinson's Talent Show Down. He's also receiving airplay on 100.5 The Peak, CBC Radio One, Virgin, The Shore, Citr, CJSFU, with live performances on CTV's Canada Am and Global's Morning Show during the 2010 Winter Olympics.

In September of 2010 Bodhi will be releasing a new full length album titled "Where Does The Time Go?" Produced by Winston Hauschild (Hannah Georgas) and mixed by Shawn Cole (Bend Sinister, Yukon Blonde, and You Say Part! We Say Die!), this latest effort is a big step up sonically and brings to light, Bodhi's heart, honesty, and song writing ability.

He's just completed his first western Canada tour and is planning a Cross-Canada tour this October in support of his new album and up coming music Video release.
