Birdie Busch is an award winning sonic and visual artist who has exhibited and performed her original work at renowned cultural institutions around Philadelphia and beyond. Her music has appeared in film and television and been put out through adventurous independents like Bar None Records and Styles Upon Styles. She has taught creative workshops centered around sparking core memories for artistic expression at Fleisher Art Memorial, The Kelly Writers House, and University of the Arts.
