NYC Subway Auditions


I always thought it would make for an interesting festival to bring the performers we see below ground every day up to the surface for a festival. The subway Accordions, Violins, Brass Bands, Guitar strummers along with Preachers, and all the Buksters in a setting like Woodstock circa 1960s. Hey some of the music is really great. And that guy with the accordion, you know who I'm talking about, may actually be the front man for a great band we don't know about.

The reason I started to ramble on about the below-street performers? New York City is holding auditions for the next round of subway artists, (video follows), and you may see one of these talented individuals headlining at SummerStage next year, or at least below Times Square.

See you at the subterranian shows!
