Buster made his professional debut in theatre
just after finishing school in the United States.
He has toured the United States seven times doing everything
from children's theatre to works of Shakespeare, various regional
companies all over the States, Off-Broadway, Off-Off-Broadway,
two operas.
While living in New York, he trained privately with Julia
DeCurtis Barrera(a veteran of the Metropolitan Opera) in classical
voice.
As a pianist, Buster has played for nearly 30 years, and has
worked in almost every capacity a pianist/singer could, covering
lobby type music for various hotels, resorts, restaurants,
music therapy, musical direction and conducting in the pit
for staged musicals, and piano bars(performing for many in
New York City, London, and of course, on cruise ships).
After his first stint in New York, Buster was offered a job
in Cyprus as a resident piano bar entertainer for several
upscale resorts. He divided his time living between Pafos,
Agia Napa and Protaras. While in Cyprus, he even gave
a performance for then Greek-Cypriot President, Tassos Papadopoulos.
Upon leaving Cyprus, Buster moved back to London and played
through the piano bar circuit there. While in London,
he worked with well known vocal coach, Ian Adam, who is not
only highly respected but also constantly works with major
stars from London's West End.
When Buster moved back to America, he did not stay on land
for very long. Almost immediately he was hired by Carnival
Cruise Lines as a piano bar entertainer. Recently Buster
has left that company after several years of working there.
Currently he makes his home in New York City.
