BUØY (aka August Wilson) is a groundbreaking new artist whose music intricately weaves their queer, trans identity into a rich tapestry of contemporary classical and experimental sound. Renowned for their emotive depth and extraordinary vocal range, BUØY’s artistry invites comparisons to luminaries such as Sigur Rós, James Blake and Anohni. From early roots singing in church choirs to finding creative freedom within the dynamic party scenes of London and Berlin, BUØY has carved a path defined by the transformative power of music and sound.

Central to BUØY’s vision is an unparalleled ability to channel raw vulnerability into their work, crafting spaces for healing, meditation, reflection, and emotional release. Their music is a profound exploration of the human condition, offering moments of solace and connection that resonate deeply with listeners. Through storytelling, BUØY forges an intimate bond with their audience, celebrating the beauty and fragility of nature and humanity alike.

With a professional background in care—specialising in autism and dementia—and a personal journey that included caring for their grandmother in her final months, BUØY has witnessed firsthand the therapeutic potential of music. These experiences have profoundly shaped their artistic approach, blending authenticity and empathy to create deeply resonant sonic experiences.

BUØY’s music stands as a testament to the healing power of sound, the courage found in self-expression, and the transformative strength of embracing one’s identity. With a unique blend of depth and innovation, BUØY captivates audiences, inviting them to explore their inner landscapes while discovering the unifying threads of shared emotion.
