Whether performing in front of an audience or bebopping and scatting between classes, Korra Galusha (Bowdoin College ’20)—Galush, as they're known on stage—moves to a beat. More than singing—they are also a classically trained alumnus of the Meddiebempsters barbershop a cappella group—Galush turns the voice into an actual instrument in a sonic art form called beatboxing. More than producing and performing from home in New England, music has taken them all over the world.

In 2018 Galush received a Watterson Summer Fellowship in the Creative and Performing Arts that allowed them to travel to Germany and Poland for the World Beatboxing Championships in Berlin and to spend time in the studio as well as conduct ethnomusicological research. In February 2019, 2023 and 2024 they co-presented Integrating Beatboxing into the Classroom at the New Jersey State Association of Music Educators Conference and the 2019 National Association of Music Educators Conference in Pittsburgh.

In the summer of 2019, thanks to a Bowdoin Career Exploration and Development-funded internship, they worked as a production assistant at American Beatbox in New York City, the organization that hosts the American Beatbox Championships.

Galush performed at the 2018 American Beatbox Championships and helped represent Team USA at the World Championships in Berlin, Germany.
