Singer, songwriter and performer, Bodhi Kenyon embraces his mission to uplift the world with positive pop rock music that moves people in spirit, mind and body. At the age of 20, a sudden passing of his eldest brother gave him the gift of hearing melodies and words which became the songs he performs today with Grammy award winning musicians.
He attended the University of California San Diego and Doshisha University, which is a prestigious university in Kyoto, Japan majoring in Japanese studies where he graduated Magna Cum Laude.
Bodhi worked for 9 years as a Senior Manager and Stage Performer for World Family, an English-based educational company that provides a comprehensive “mother-tongue-method” product called Disney’s World of English, which teaches children English through singing, dancing, speaking, listening and having fun. His duties included managing 100 foreign performers and 60 Japanese staff to insure the highest quality musical events and educational services for over 76,000 member families all across Japan. He realized that although he would soon become the top executive at World Family Club, he wouldn’t have been true to his life-mission, which is to be a world-class rock star and human being who brings the best of who he is to millions of people across this planet. He couldn’t allow his music to die within him, so he let go of his position at World Family as of July 2012 and is now living his dream through commitment to his music, words and actions.
His band OUR SPACE, is based in Tokyo, Japan and will be recording and touring in the United States in 2013. Their first LP is due to be released by or before April 2013.
This song Redskin Driver was inspired one cool morning at Pacific Beach in San Diego California. It all came at once and the meaning of it wasn't obvious until some time later. It's a song about blasting through all of the emotional/mental blocks that are created over time and exposing yourself to who you truly are. The Redskin is the True Skin! It's a great song of power for the Washington Redskins, as well! Go Redskins!!!
