Patrick Bush (born 9 December 1952) is an English musician, instrument maker, music critic, producer and artist. He is also the older brother of singer-songwriter, musician, and record producer Kate Bush and his best-known works are his collaborations with her on all of her studio albums up to the 2005 release Aerial.[2] Bush often plays standard Western instruments such as the guitar, mandolin, and harmonica, along with non-western instruments, such as the balalaika, sitar, koto, and digeridoo. Bush is the sole European musician who has mastered the playing and making of the marovany, a traditional Malagasy instrument related to the valiha. He undertook a number of extensive trips to Madagascar for filming and radio recording purposes. On one of these, Bush presented the widely screened television documentary Like A God When He Plays which also features popular Malagasy musician Justin Vali. Bush was an original member of the KT Bush Band.[3] In 1993, Bush collaborated with Colin Lloyd-Tucker to form the band Bushtucker.[4]
