Buskers: The On-the-Streets, In-the-Trains, Off-the-Grid Memoir of Two New York City Street Musicians
The Weinstein brothers' decision to bring their music directly to the masses marked a turning point in their careers. By playing on street corners and in subway stations, they connected with live audiences who responded enthusiastically, leading to a surprising surge in sales.
This memoir recounts the brothers' turbulent adolescence, their attempts at traditional rock 'n' roll success, and their unexpected path to circumventing the music industry. It also offers insights into the technical and legal aspects of street performance and New York busking culture.
