Buschovski (bush-OV-skee) is Todd Busch and a band of musicians inexplicably capable of bringing his artistic vision to life. The main players are Todd himself (piano/guitar/vocals), Pete (guitar/vocals), DK (drums/percussion/vocals), and Shawn Lynch (bass/vocals). Their sound is further completed by Nicolette Emanuelle (cello), Brent Dunn (cello), Ben Kennedy (violin), Molly J. Brown (tuba/trombone), and Brent Bagwell (clarinet, sax).
Todd Busch has been performing in and around the Charlotte area since the early 1990’s. He is a self-taught musician who takes the complexity of emotion and imagination and turns them into orchestral pop gems of the highest order. Whether exposing man’s ugly shortcomings, illuminating human triumph or looking to the supernatural for inspiration, his music touches on a romanticism and rawness that draws the listener in. Buschovski does not stick to one genre and resists easy classification. Influences include Chopin, Scott Walker, and all kinds of music, traditional and modern, from all over the world.
Creative Loafing review:
The predictable thing about Todd Busch's songs is their unpredictably; they turn left where pop songs typically go right, changing time sigs, tempos, keys and styles with a built-in logic of their own. That versatility makes the music impossible to pigeonhole – is it rock? Folk? World? Pop? Cabaret? – and gives the whole enterprise a timeless, era-free quality. (Schacht)
