Santa Cruz--street music scene

Sometimes posting here is just a tad too easy. My web service provider  posted a link to this twitter video:

Thirteen year old tabla virtuoso

which in turn led to this one:

The Dusty Porch Orchestra

The kid was playing not fifty yards from the front of our store, and the string band is right outside the New Leaf market. I passed these last on my way to the bus this very evening. The videos are courtesy one Andrew Mueller, who I do not happen to know.

  1. Thirteen-year-old tabla virtuosi are fine, but the Dusty Porch Orchestra is the best ensemble name I've seen in some time.

  3. Hey, Dusty Porch Orchestra, I don't actually have any of the videos--you might follow the link and see if you can contact the guy who shot the video--I think his name is Arthur Mueller.

    Good luck--you all are good!
