Bio
Bodhi Jones spent his early years poor but happy, living on Salt Spring Island. He affectionately refers to it as a “hippie paradise” and says spending his childhood there was like "living a page out of huckleberry finn”. Shortly after his tenth birthday, he and his mom moved from Salt Spring to Vancouver. 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 discovered his passion for music.
Over the past 8 years, Bodhi has recorded 5 EP’s and 4 full length albums, selling over 20,000 copies while performing on the streets of downtown Vancouver. in 2009 he 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 brought even more exposure his way: Earning a second consecutive selection in The Peak Performance Project’s top 20 and placing 3rd in Red Robinson’s Talent Show Down. He’s currently receiving airplay on 100.5 The Peak, CBC Radio One, CBC Radio 3, Virgin, The Shore, CITR and CJSF, with live performances and interviews on Shaw Cable, CTV, Global, and a variety of CBC radio programs.
He’s just completed his 3rd Western Canadian tour and will be heading out across Canada this Spring and Summer in support of a new full length album titled "Alone On The Battlefield".
