Brad Moore

Drummer
Busker Busker

Since 2013, Brad Moore swept the Korean music scene with his band Busker Busker. As the drummer in Busker Busker, alongside guitarist and vocalist Jang Beom-jun, bassist Kim Hyung-tae, Busker Busker became one of K-Pop’s most popular bands after gaining much success and popularity for their performances on the Korean music audition television show “Superstar K3”. Brad is originally from Fairfield, Ohio and with his college sweetheart, Dani Bacon, moved to Korea almost immediately after they graduated from Miami University in 2008. The couple began teaching English and fell in love with Korea. While teaching at SangMyung University, Brad formed the rock band, Busker Busker, with Jang Beom-June and Kim Hyeong-Tae who were then his students. The band performed and busked around campus before joining SuperstarK. Busker Busker won consecutive Album of the Year awards in 2012 and 2013, and has completed two nationwide tours. Their 2012 hit, "Cherry Blossom Ending," reappears on the charts each spring and has become Korea's unofficial spring carol. Brad and Dani currently live in Seoul.
