About / Biography

With a voice as dark as as a double espresso submerged in bourbon and piano chops that strut from New Orleans barrelhouse to smokey blues, rollicking boogie and stride. Pugsley Buzzard is a showman like no other. His performances are a heady cocktail of swamp-soaked blues, jazz, and boogie-woogie swagger—spiked with storytelling, wit, and raw soul.

A seasoned composer, singer, and pianist, Pugsley has carved out an international career that’s taken him from Australia to Europe’s great stages and festivals via USA and Asia . Whether fronting his swamp orchestra or commanding a solo set, he conjures a world of mischief, groove, and irresistible rhythm.

Each show is a journey through the crooked alleyways of jazz and blues history, lit up with original songs, raucous improvisation, and that unmistakable growl of a voice. Audiences don’t just watch Pugsley Buzzard perform—they get swept into his carnival of sound

Solo performer, band leader, singer and pianist Pugsley Buzzard has been entertaining audiences worldwide for 35 years. Originally from Perth, Western Australia and has played throughout Europe, the USA and Australia. Pugsley is currently based in Northern Portugal. Pugsley performs classic blues, soul and jazz and is also a prolific composer and songwriter performing his own creations.
