Tim Busovsky

Tim Busovsky is a 21 year old multi-instrumentalist who first picked up the guitar at the age of eight. As his influences grew, so did his desire to learn to play other instruments. Though only formally trained on brass instruments such as the trumpet and tuba, Tim exercises proficiency on guitar, banjo, mandolin, drums, and piano, to name a few. Currently, he is busy writing, recording, and looking to spread his music to anyone who will graciously listen.

Drawing upon the sounds of musicians such as Elliott Smith, Sufjan Stevens and Mark Kozelek, Tim Busovsky establishes a simple, folk rock sound utilizing his proficient skills with the guitar, banjo and mandolin. Likewise with bands such as Animal Collective and Godspeed You! Black Emperor, he experiments with different types of sounds with his wide vocal range and the manipulation of instruments to create a unique, experimental sound but retains his roots in folk rock, giving a breath of beauty and melody to what was once a jumble of strange sounds.

Lyrically, Tim strives to write songs from different perspectives, intentionally infusing a variety of concepts and emotions into a single song. Life is complicated, so the music that reflects it should carry the same likeness.
