Bus Driver is that rare artist who brings so much flair and originality to his music that he has transformed a whole genre with his intricate assault of complex rhymes and vocal delivery. While Bus Driver is definitely a hip-hop artist, known for collaborations with artists like Dedalus, and releases on labels like Mush and Big Dada/Ninja Tune, on his Epitaph/ANTI- debut /RoadKillOvercoat/ he delivers synth laden, post-techno hooks and indie-pop moves provided by underground heroes, Boom Bip and DJ Nobody.

From touring with indie folk-rock heroes Coco Rosie to wowing audiences on the fickle independent dance music (IDM) circuit, Bus Driver is exploring beyond the narrow boundaries of any one “scene.” On /RoadKillOvercoat/ he strings together pop-culture reference points, cryptic wordplay and gallant wit, with a wide musical palette of pop grandeur, psychedelic hip-hop and minimal beats, capturing new listeners with his most undeniably catchy release yet.
