Rising Alt- Pop Singer/Songwriter bodie Announces Debut Album 'NO SKIPS'
Rising alt-pop singer songwriter bodie - known for his genre-blurring sound and breakthrough run on The Voice Season 22 - announces the forthcoming release of his new album, 'NO SKIPS,' due on September 5 via Provident Entertainment/Sony.
To celebrate the much-anticipated album announcement, bodie today concurrently releases the forthcoming LP’s title track and new single, “NO SKIPS.” A propulsive, R&B-infected pop banger, “NO SKIPS” is a feel-good call to live life in the moment and embrace every situation, no matter how it might appear on the surface.
“NO SKIPS” follows the recent release of a slew of new bodie music, including “GOOD OLD DAYS” and “SAY SO” in addition to its accompanying music video, inspired by MTV’s legendary Jackass-era antics. “SAY SO” served as the first taste from the NO SKIPS album, due in September. His radio single, “whisper and the wind,” from the HAPPY TO BE HERE EP (Provident Entertainment/SONY) ascended to the Top 10 on both the Billboard Airplay and the Mediabase Audience charts and amassed over 23 million global streams to date.
Having recently wrapped his highly-successful, national headline Murder My Ego Tour, bodie is headed back out on tour this fall. The multi-talented musician is first joining Elevation Rhythm for seven dates on their Goodbye Yesterday Tour, beginning on September 6 in Houston, before joining Seph Schlueter on the singer’s Counting My Blessing Tour, which kicks off on September 18 in Savannah, Georgia.
