Jodi Phillis
Jodi Christine Phillis (born in Melbourne, Australia on April 11, 1965) is an Australian singer-songwriter-guitarist. She spent her childhood in California, United States, and moved back to Sydney, Australia to begin school. She quit school at 15, then spent 8 years working with surfwear company Mambo Graphics until she took up the role as co-frontwoman of The Clouds. Phillis was best known for her vocal ability in many of her songs, such as 'Hieronymus', 'Souleater' and 'Ghost of Love Returned'.
After the Clouds' split in 1997 Phillis formed the Dearhunters project, and from then on she took a much mellower musical direction. In 2001 Phillis released her debut solo album, In Dreams I Live, for which she was nominated for an ARIA Award. Her second solo album, For Lovers, Artists and Dreamers, was released in 2004.
Phillis currently lives in Tasmania with her husband and fellow musician Tim Oxley and her two daughters.
