Early years

Bice was nicknamed "Bogart" as a child by his family, and it was later shortened to "Bo". He first made his mark at the age of 9, when he won a local school competition. After high school, he turned professional and performed in shows all across the United States, the United Kingdom and Ireland. He is a veteran of the nightclub circuit, having performed solo and in rock groups such as Purge, Blue Suede Nickel, and his current band Sugar Money. Among his credits are opening for Blackfoot and Warrant as well as performing live and recording with Johnny Neal, formerly of The Allman Brothers Band. He currently resides in Helena, Alabama.

On April 28th, 2005, The Smoking Gun discovered that Bo was charged with cocaine possession (June, 2001) and marijuana possession (July, 2003) before he auditioned for Idol (but as with fellow contestant Scott Savol, he had been forthcoming to Idol producers about the arrests, and he was consequently allowed to remain in the competition).
