Jodi Walker is a recovering New Yorker who has been writing and performing in Berwyn since 2009. Jodi was the featured vocalist for the Eric Plaks Quartet (Cadence Records) from 2002-2009. She also performed with 3 of her 8 siblings as the lead singer for their mega party band The International Superstars in and around NYC from 2001-2009. Upon moving to Oak Park, Jodi and her husband, guitarist Dave Walker stumbled upon a flourishing creative community in Berwyn where Jodi was encouraged by the astoundingly talented and generous people she met to pick up a pen and mandolin and start writing. Petulance marks Jodi's second full length release and was recorded, mixed and mastered by Sons of the Neverwrong's Bruce Roper at Little School Street Studios. Her writing blends the influences of jazz, roots and funk to produce an eclectic sound as backdrop for her raw, quirky lyrics. Proceeds from the CD sales will go towards sponsorship of refugee relocation through a partnership between Unity Temple and Refugee One.
