The luckiest people on the planet consider Billy “Bushwalla” Galewood among their friends. If this needs proving, I recommend listening to “Sun & Moon”, his contribution to our benefit CD, or giving yourself the gift of seeing him in concert.
Bushwalla is an outstanding performer, an unflappable host, and The Original Ganster From Cleveland (oh-HI-oh!). His positive energy and enthusiasm are contagious and GREAT fun. His wardrobe choices alone can perk up a bad day – and that’s before he starts playing, juggling, doing magic, and making me giggle uncontrollably.
And then there is the music – acoustic hip-hop and genuine funk. The Man Who Invented the Sky is a triumph – in command of a host of styles that represent B’s past, visited in a way that makes them fresh (and demands booty-shaking). There are thoughtful lyrics in the midst of all that celebration, too.
In our community, Bushwalla is teacher, entertainer, co-conspirator, and beloved friend. We’re lucky that way.
