Often you’ll see buskers in the street who are pretty damn awful and haven’t got a clue how to play an instrument. Then every now and then, you’ll spot a gem. These are a few examples of “gems”.
Street busking is a great way of building up your confidence as a musician and gives you just about the best training you can get in dealing with people and overcoming any fears you may have of performing in public.
1. Andreas Varady | Jazz Guitarist
He is only 12 years old! Playing with his Dad on a street in Limerick, Ireland.
2. Mr. Anonymous
This guy is the typical ‘underground’ street guitarist. It looks like he is self taught as you can see his right hand technique is very unique. However, he makes the guitar sound great!
3. Irish Guitar Player | N.C
Guy on the street (name is N.C. Lawlor)plays slide on electric/acoustic right in Dublin on Grafton.
4. London Guitar Player | Stefan Joubert
Playing on a busy street corner in London.
