Bodega were a Canadian alternative rock band in the late 1990s and early 2000s. They are best known for their debut album Bring Yourself Up, which was a Juno Award nominee for Best Alternative Album at the Juno Awards of 1999.[1]

History

Bodega was formed in Montreal in 1996 by Andrew Rodriguez and Sam Goldberg.[2] The duo recruited drummer Kim Temple and moved to Toronto to record Bring Yourself Up, which was released in 1997 on independent label Vibra Cobra Records.[2] The band then signed to London Records, which remixed and rereleased Bring Yourself Up internationally in 1998.[2] This album was nominated for a Juno Award for Best Alternative Album.

Following Vibra Cobra's 1998 acquisition by Universal Music Group, the band were left largely unpromoted in the upheaval; they were offered the opportunity to move to Sire Records, but declined.[3] The band began working on new material, performing it around Toronto, including at the Rivoli in 1999.[4]

The band released its second and final album, Without a Plan, in 2001 on the independent Brobdingnagian Records.[5] The album was produced by Dave Fridmann.[5] Goldberg and Temple then left the band, and Rodriguez carried on with a rotating lineup of musicians, including Leslie Feist as a guitarist in some live performances.[6]

Rodriguez subsequently opted to retire the band name, releasing Here Comes the Light in 2007 as a solo album rather than a third Bodega album.[7]
