Likely to appear just about anywhere, amateur and professional buskers can be found roaming the world with their itinerate performances.

Walking down Busker Alley, we'll be looking at hundreds of distinctive buskers that highlight the street performing arts. Each video has it's own character from which to learn. These are of concern to artists looking to expand their show, motivational interests, as well as social scientists researching cultural behavior. Some videos include a total environmental approach while forever attempting to answer the inconceivable question, "What is a busker?"
