Toronto-based guitarist/composer Jamie Bonk is set to release his fourth and latest album, 5. Recorded over a three year period, this five song EP features, in addition to Jamie's own guitar playing, performances by two outstanding instrumentalists, flugelhornist Jeff Oster and pianist Loren Gold. 5 is Jamie's most diverse record to date and draws on a multitude of styles including New Wave, Classical, Rock and Ambient. 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 spent two months (September and October 2004) at number one on the NAR Top 100 Radio Chart.
