Artist History Bodhisattva was founded by Rob Wcislo with friend and guitarist Bo Shupin in the early 90's. Being a true element of underground grunge and psychedelia in NYC and Jersey gave these two a modern-day beatnik status within that scene. After recording the monster CD, Bodhisattva, and touring colleges throught the northeastern US, Rob Wcislo has gone on to release his solo project, "Underwater." CDs can be gotten @ www.cdnow.com or amazon.com. Lookup "Wcislo," "Bodhisattva" or "Swim" under Popular Music. Mmm Mmm good!

Instruments Electric & Acoustic guitars, drums, bass, vocals, tenor saxophone

Albums Bodhisattva (Swim) & Underwater (Rob Wcislo solo)

Press Reviews "oooh. this is good! This is a hard-hitting trio that sounds big, cool and smart. Swim plays with time, melody and your head! The performances are tight and laced with tons o'feel. I hope radio gets this. I suggest they dive right in!" -Francis Bell, The Music Paper/The Musicians'Exchange
