New directory of UK buskers launched

Musicalbusker.co.uk has launched a new directory of UK buskers. Showcasing street musicians of all varieties, each busker profile includes an mp3 clip, contact details or a link to an external site, busking locations and other essential information. The directory is still very much a work in progress, but aims to connect buskers with each other and the opportunities available to them.

View the directory at www.musicalbusker.co.uk/directory.

To be featured in the directory, email a photo of yourself, your contact details, and mp3 clip of yourself performing (optional) and any extra information to admin_at_musicalbusker_dot_co_dot_uk
