Toronto-based guitarist/composer Jamie Bonk's fifth and latest album is St. Joseph Street (released September 2009). Named after the Toronto street Jamie has lived on for the last 20 years, this four song digital-only EP features, in addition to Jamie's own guitar playing, performances by bassist Henrik Bridger, drummers Dave Patel and Peter Zakarow, vocalist Wendy Irvine and flutist Bill McBirnie. St. Joseph Street is Jamie's most diverse record to date and draws on a multitude of styles including Jazz, Chill and Pop.

Jamie recorded his fourth album, 5 (released June 2007), over a three year period and was joined on the album by two outstanding instrumentalists, flugelhornist Jeff Oster and pianist Loren Gold. Jamie's third album, My World (released August 2004), won two NAR LifeStyle Music Awards for: Album of the Year and Best Instrumental Album - Acoustic. My World blended Jamie's fluid acoustic guitar playing with performances from keyboardist Sonya Mitlewski, guitarist Peter Janson and vocalists Ron Scott and Shelley Hamilton. The album featured a cover of the Bee Gees' "Nights On Broadway" as well as the Ron Scott penned "If This Is Love" and the Janson/Bonk composition "Waiting For Winter". My World spent two months (September and October 2004) at number one on the NAR Top 100 Radio Chart.
