Washington Post gets the story.

Happiest Man on the Block

2008-08-25T10:05:00.000-07:00

I love this stuff... Here's a guy without hands and legs- still rockin' away on the keyboard with the biggest grin you'll ever see. I love that my friend Jenn found this in NY!

Homemade Caribbean Marimba

2008-06-06T12:46:00.000-07:00

This is cheating a bit since it's not technically a "street musician video," but this was featured on YouTube this morning and I thought, I need to post the because 1) it's outdoors / nonprofessional music and 2) it's just awesome.

Thanks PlayHanghang!
And thanks YouTube for featuring such great, original music!

Harley Davidson meets the Violin

2008-06-05T16:57:00.000-07:00

Not often that you see someone dressed like a biker, ready to play an amazing song on the violin. Yes, it's a drastic stereotype and I apologize...

catagg took the video and survived to share it with us.

Is it Flutist, Floutest, or Flute Player?

2008-06-04T16:56:00.000-07:00

Some lively flute playing on Exeter Street from YouTuber bazelya.

Marimba Duet at Pike's Place

2008-05-27T13:24:00.000-07:00

Craig and Christian play the marimba in Seattle's Pike Place Market. Video caught by: outtacontrol66 on YouTube.

Beautiful Harp Music from France

2008-05-21T13:26:00.000-07:00

Beautiful harp playing in Montmartre. Isn't there where Amelie's from?

jennixuloveut picked this up in France.

Violin and Banjo Duet from the Ebony Hillbillies

2008-05-20T11:23:00.000-07:00

These guys call themselves the Ebony Hillbillies. I really enjoy the banjo and violin together. Props to borisreitman for picking this up and posting it!

NYC's Bucket Drummer

2008-05-19T11:12:00.000-07:00

This is my favorite video of Larry Wright and some random girl playing bucket drums in NYC. Make sure you listen all the way to the last 20 seconds for the amazing finish.

This video is from MGFX.

Trumpet and Piano Duet (by the same person)

2008-05-17T22:46:00.000-07:00

It's hard to ignore this most famous guy from Japan. I mean, who has enough talent to play trumpet AND piano at the same time other than him? I'd like to see you try!

The Most Amazing Accordian Yet

2008-05-16T10:42:00.000-07:00

This is pretty impressive. A man in Milan who's almost not even a performer as much as simply an artist. He's lost in his music and so he's not really playing to the crowd- he's playing to himself.

zeloan500 picked up the greatness of this man's accordion in 3 separate videos. Watch them ALL!

Play Us a Song, You're the Piano Man!

2008-05-15T14:23:00.000-07:00

In Paris, honky tonk still rules on this street. Thanks, deardad.

Dueling Banjo and Guitar Performance

2008-05-14T15:15:00.001-07:00

This kind of banjo and guitar dueling doesn't happen very often.

Pan Flute Guy, why are you such a playa?!

2008-05-14T14:59:00.000-07:00

If this video was a little longer, I might follow this guy to the ends of the earth, just like that little trickster Pan for whom this flute is named.

Seattle Sax Player

2008-05-13T11:24:00.000-07:00

I've actually SEEN this guy. He plays on First Avenue, downtown Seattle. I'll have to let him know that he's featured here on Street Music Videos! Thank you snamelcyhtomit for shooting and posting this.

A True One-Man Band

2008-05-12T10:30:00.000-07:00

This Thia Street Entertainer can sing, play harmonica, guitar, and drums all at the same time. Multitasking? Or is there some secret stereo system behind him somewhere?

Great catch from andyondrums!

Wine Anyone?

2008-05-11T10:32:00.000-07:00

It's hard to believe that anyone is this talented on wine glasses- but search the internet and you'll find hundreds of these... this guy, however, takes requests. And that's something to marvel at.

Happy Munich Man

2008-05-10T12:59:00.001-07:00

This Munich man makes the very most of the one chord he knows on the cello.

Bagpipe Concert with Accordion and Guitar

2008-05-09T13:28:00.000-07:00

This is a fantastic little video from Italy (specifically from Barga). It's beautiful combination of Iris & Italian Heritage... sort of like when my friend Kate worked at Bucca de Beppo.

Homemade Drumset in DC

2008-05-09T10:09:00.000-07:00

Waveonline caught this excellent homemade drum performance in Washington, DC. Good to know something excellent is happening in our capitol!

Beatbox Flute and Cello

2008-05-09T06:11:00.000-07:00

Listen carefully for the beatboxing.

Guitar, Flute and Voice - Machu Picchu

2008-05-08T04:15:00.000-07:00

Hang Drum in Barcelona

2008-05-07T22:59:00.000-07:00

Mike took a video of this talented young Hang Drum Musician in Barcelona and uploaded it to YouTube. The Hang Drum is sort of like a reverse steel drum, played with the fingers instead of with mallets. Check it out!

This Aussie Shreds the Didgeridoo!

2008-05-07T11:52:00.000-07:00

In Oklahoma, an aussie shreds the Didgeridoo. It's hard to believe such beautiful sounds can be produced by a wooden tube. But this gentleman surprises us all and does a wonderful job creating texture and sound with a simple instrument.
