Man, I love these guys. I can’t say it enough. They are fantastic. Not only that, but they seem to be getting some action from Undercover New York – so I must be doing something right! Let’s hope it’s the same for all y’all, Nick x

Thanks to my grandmother’s untimely death (well, there’s never a timely one), I had my entire family in town for Easter weekend. So I got out of the house and made my way down to the 5th Avenue Easter Day Parade. And what a good idea that was! If you’re ever mourning on Easter in [...]

It has been just over a week since I moved to NYC, in hopes of making a living from street performing and teaching music lessons. I moved from Orlando, FL, where I had made something of a reputation for myself. I would often walk up to the busy corner of Central and Orange to find [...]

Wow. The New York Times article about this creation is essential reading material if you’re going to go to see Os Gemeos‘ latest masterpiece on the corner of Houston and Bowery. Without it, you’re likely to miss a lot. I really couldn’t believe what I was looking at, once I’d gone through it from left [...]

In Central Park with my brother who is visiting from England, I wanted to impress him with my work and the talent that was out there. Of course, he just wanted to lie down in the grass. So I went hunting for some talent, and came across Thoth in the Bethesda Terrace. Despite the noise [...]

A free, outdoor, bilingual (Spanish/English) performance of the popular children’s story, Cinderella.

I was lucky enough to be passing the Metropolitan Museum again while Acapella Soul were out on the block. Last time they were in large dark suits, with the sun beating down, singing “I Wish it Would Rain.” This time, a little more upbeat, singing the Lion King’s “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” to the enjoyment [...]

Rakiem Walker went to town on requests from the crowd, wailing through “Favorite Things” and the American national anthem, ending the set with “Here Comes the Bride” for two lovers having professional photos taken. I found him at the Bethesda Terrace in Central Park (right next to the Bethesda Fountain). In Central Park — and, [...]

Again, yes I know, these aren’t really street performers. But it’s a street, and they’re performing. So, if anyone wants to go to a free street performance, go down to the Central Park Skate Circle, found on the “dead road” in Central Park. Why do they call it the “dead road”? Find out here…. This [...]

Okay, this time I didn’t do such a good job. It’s terrible, really – it has been a long time since I last put any street performers up here. However, here’s the footage I took of this unknown jazz band. I’m thinking that should they chance upon this post, they’ll be able to tell us [...]
