"Nadia's music stops time. I swear to God. Her beauty and sincerity, onstage and off, demands that the world stop and take a look"...

Originally from Quesnel, BC, Nadia von Hahn has gone from high school eccentric, to musical theater maniac, and finally, a powerhouse songstress, all in a few short years. After packing her bags, and cutting off her teenaged-dreadlocks, this small town girl graduated as class Valedictorian from The Canadian College of Performing Arts, in Victoria. There she received a scholarship from the Canadian Heritage Arts Society, for her work in classical voice, acting, and musical theater. A diverse performer, Nadia has taken her layered artistic background and infused her own songwriting with playful drama, wistful sincerity, and stubborn hope.

Described as “cinematic”, and “an ethereal powerhouse”, this young performer is poised at the beginning of an exciting career. From dramatic piano balladry to cheeky retro-pop, her distinct luxurious vocals and empathetic lyrics are a gracious hostess to a wide audience. Her relentlessly hummable melodies, and courageously sensitive sound have drawn comparisons to Sarah Slean, Tori Amos, Regina Spektor, and even Feist . Her unique fusion of pop, folk, and theatrical sensibilities have combined to create a style that is both entirely current, and completely timeless.

In 2008, Nadia started recording her debut album in Victoria BC, until one night she received a devastating e-mail. Someone had broken into the studio, and the computer was taken. There were no back-ups. Everything was gone, just when it was nearly finished. “More than anything I was in shock, thinking about the time and energy that was lost, special moments in the recordings you just can't re-create. But, eventually, the experience taught me that starting over can be a good thing, and now I'm stronger for it. I'll be releasing a very different album soon, and I pretty much feel ready to take on the world.”

Nadia recently finished production on her debut EP "Wait And See What Happens", with producer Winston Hauschild (Hannah Georgas), at FaderMaster Studios in Vancouver, to be released Oct. 5, 2010.

 

Bodhi Jones www.bodhijones.com or www.myspace.com/bodhijones 

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 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.
