Jodi Shaw is a Canadian-born poet/performer with a unique voice and vision. Her music has been described as "hauntingly erotic," "mystical" and "hard to pin down." One reviewer, upon hearing her latest release "In Waterland" for the first time, remarked that he was "partially shocked." Another calls the album "a revelation, nothing less than stunning," with yet another hailing it as "a relentlessly intense masterpiece." Her work has drawn comparisons to Feist, Fiona Apple, Imogen Heap, Tori Amos, and the Beach Boys.
A late-bloomer, Jodi arrived to music though her work as a writer of “wicked little rhymes.” She is heavily inspired by poets and visual artists, most notably Eva Hesse, Kiki Smith, Frank O’Hara, Anne Sexton and Arthur Rimbaud.
Her first two albums "The Myth of Patience" and "The Pie-Love Sky" are the work of a young yet highly original artist finding her voice. After releasing her third album (the sparse and haunting "Snow on Saturn"), Jodi commenced a three month solo tour of Europe before returning to New York City to work as a secretary by day and subway busker by night.
In the spring of 2009 she teamed up with fellow Canadian Malcolm Burn to record the ten vignettes that comprise "In Waterland," a highly evocative, intensely personal - almost sacred - work, fraught with lust, evil, and beauty. The album is Jodi's most ambitious sonic experiment to date, showcasing her work as a budding producer.
