Born in Sao Paulo with a musical background, always admired and followed his father’s career, Andre Busic, founder and member of bands like: Traditional Jazz Band, Brazilian Jazz Stompers, and Blue Gang. Always in the search of learning, he used to watch all his father’s concerts, When he was 17 he recorded his first album with the band Platina, right after that many other bands and albuns came, like the band Cherokee, A chave do sol (the key), Taffo, Supla and finally his present band, the power trio Dr.Sin formed by Ivan and Andria Busic along with Eduardo Ardanuy.
He did a lot of other participations as a hired musician or as a special guest like, Golpe de Estado, Silvinha Araújo, Eduardo Araújo, Monica Araujo, Daniel Gonzaga, Andre Busic & Hot Line Jazz Band, Claudio Celso, Vera Negri, Wreckage, Pitbulls on Crack, Arthur Maia, Deborah Blando and others. He was the in the cover of the Cover Batera magazine, where he writes his own workshop page, and he is frequently in other specialized magazines.
Certainly he has acquired his own style for playing since the beginning of his career every night with his father. Ivan is a great soloist, but his biggest concern is to play thinking about the whole context and not only the drums.
He and his brother Andria are so perfectly tight playing together that for many times they have been awarded with the best bass and drums of the brazilian rock. Actually he plays a lot of different styles. He is also a drum teacher in one of the most famous music schools of Brazil called Souza Lima.
For those who already had the chance to hear one of his albums or Dr.Sin concerts, certainly felt the strong and precise way to play of this who is for sure one of the great brazilian drummers.
