Born in Newfoundland, Canada but raised in suburban New Hampshire, Jodi enjoyed an almost storybook American childhood that included activities like piano lessons, swim team, and cheerleading. After a brief stint as a graduate student in poetry, Jodi left academia and began transforming her highly coherent, lyrical poetry into songs. Only a year after she picked up her first guitar. The Pie-Love Sky, produced by Steve Addabbo (Suzanne Vega, Shawn Colvin, Dar Williams), she continues to develop the distinctive sound that puts her in a class with few peers. While her songs often recall the quiet beauty and subtle-yet-visceral impact of Chan Marshall"s Cat Power, Jodi"s uncommonly pretty voice and straightforward delivery is comparable to vocalists like Edie Brickel, Suzanne Vega, Natalie Merchant and Heather Nova. The Pie-Love Sky delivers a strong acoustic blend of indie and folk with Jodi"s melodically intuitive style of guitar playing recalling that of the great Joni Mitchell.
