Tash Sultana - Busker Stories episode 1 (street music) documentary webseries

Tash Sultana - Busker Stories episode 1. Tash is one of the most talented singer/songwriters on the streets, and an incredible guitarist. She's amassed a huge following, and now sells out her ticketed shows. But before she started she had a different view of buskers. #BuskerStories

[@flynnputt8010]

And now she is performing at Coachella! She's amazing!

[@kimberlyoda2041]

"I went from playing in front of four people, to like rooms of four hundred people" And now Tash is touring internationally, headlining sold out shows in Europe and the US. I love re-watching this video and all the living room recordings, and seeing how they've come so far now.

[@BuskerStories]

An incredible journey, we've loved watching her grow bigger and bigger.

[@MrLioncash]

I can't be the only person who fell instantly in love with Tash and her music. She's awesome.

[@ljayyyyyy]

The angry stares she gets is crazy. Street performance is one of the most fluid, personal and real presentations of music there is, yet people are so insulted, angry and off guard by it. Sad.

[@irvwayshort9566]

I think its mainly because of what she said in the beginning. People have this generic idea that buskers are semi-homeless, dirty, broke bums. You could have talent by the boatloads but for the most part, people are embarrassed and uncomfortable to be seen stopping to admire a bum. There insecurities completely drown out their ability to take notice of something completely pure and beautiful. Its sad to see so many numb humans.

[@Beeyourself321]

Yes! I am no where near in the realm of talent that Tash is in, but I have experienced a lot of disgust and resentment projected towards me while busking. Simply because I am " too f**king loud", or another countless list of fear-invoked reasons. I'm not asking everyone to give me money, everyone is in their right to like or dislike my music taste/ voice etc. But I think as a whole, buskers should be treated with more respect. Because a vast majority of us are not "on the streets" out of desperation, we are doing this for the love of music, to connect with other people, and to use our music to influence people's lives positively. :)

[@CB-rl3dl]

Cuz they don't know

[@krisseu9577]

Beeyourself321 Yeh cos you probably suck and you're probably a narcissist doing it for attention and people are aware of that

[@urbangoth8455]

kdt she can draw a crowd which clearly shows she, at the very least, interests a fair amount of people. those who cannot appreciate things for the values they contain (any everything contains value, even things people consider bad) and feel the need to literally take a moment out of their day to tell her to be quiet when they can just keep walking or go home as well, they are ignorant. people have a right to what they like and dislike, and to voice those opinions, but that does not mean those they express those views to are suddenly immune to repercussions. it’s an equal and opposite reaction situation here. someone tells you to shut: you get louder. edit: spelling

[@Sars88]

oh no... I think I just fell in love..

[@safohenetsuapim1182]

Sarah Fischer mine was a rise...

[@shiftingrealities4213]

I just saw her live this weekend in Baltimore, Md... and I was bawling!!😭 (happy tears) Her music just speaks to me, it gives me chills. It was the best concert I had been to in my life! Thank you for sharing your music to the world Tash 😍😚🥰❤❤🙏

[@BuskerStories]

Congrats to Tash who just placed #3 in the Triple J Hottest 100 (and also placed #32 too!). A huge talent.

[@AussieManny]

[@ani_of_astora8455]

Just seen here at Laneway Festival in Adelaide she is amazing.

[@BuskerStories]

[@Sig721Tau]

[@claudiajohnson5981]

You know she’s good because you can see all the people walking by literally turning as she started singing louder! I love you Tash.

[@kalep7591]

how have i never seen this video before!? i just saw tash live in May and it was without a doubt one of the best live performances i've ever seen! this people have no idea how lucky they are to have watched her on the street and perform. she's a wonderful soul and truly talented human being. thank you for this video!

[@BuskerStories]

Our pleasure! We love seeing where Tash has got too now.

[@michaelmilsom9518]

when is the last time you saw a whole wack of people taking time out of their day just to hang and listen to a busker?? And yet...there they are.. mesmerized. Incredible.

[@ilyasantonov212]

Especially to a busker doing originals

[@xwhite2020]

Saw Jon Butler. Saw Fat Mat the clown. Tash is nearly at that level. Pretty damn good.

[@FeartheNobodys]

God, I am in love with her voice and her aura and overall attitude. I can't wait to see her here in LA.

[@brir2333]

One of my absolute fav people 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@mirandapelletier8114]

I've seen her and it's nothing short of magical

[@klaudiadaliva9573]

I am a busker and funniest part of this, is how we get to the street with this whole equipment..... Tash before and after her gigs looks so fresh and so... soft? How?! Nice job girl!

[@katie4916]

[@darkshine2129]

Katie Jo she plays in the states.

[@katie4916]

Ye I heard that. And she is selling out shows. So cool :) I am from New Zealand though so Melbourne is a lot closer to me than the U.S. ha

[@jamestrout3246]

Katie Jo come to iowa

[@dannyinaus]

She is also a leso, so I think you would get on well with her

[@madd5]

I wish I could get a Visa to visit Europe and be in her concert. LOL

[@christianbarley5369]

Her music touches my soul and make me feel free again. Truly talented and amazing person!

[@cliffordspeach0212]

Tash is actually my favorite person ever

[@tifftaylor6882]

[@finnishsalesman1668]

Hi

[@starrraven9619]

Love her drive, ambition and her soul. She's so beautiful but her smile radiates from within. Her music takes you on your own personal journey and it's amazing.

[@user34000]

She's GREAT and a really natural talented artist ever. I like to hear when she's playing the quitar and putting the beat all together WOOOOOW ❤️

[@hunterr7014]

this gives me shivers to go back and watch this, just after shes played at coachella. this is the true meaning if made it from the ground up.

[@elipriestley3113]

saw her live once 20 000 people were there and it was the best thing i have ever seen/heard

[@Icemane1995]

Even tho she's super famous now I hope she remembers her roots and keeps busking every now and then!

[@BuskerStories]

Not sure she can, the crowd would be too big!

[@Icemane1995]

Busker Stories haha yeah would make it a bit of hassle if you were trying to get somewhere and the whole street is full!

[@jiminslefteyebrow6984]

"remember her roots" bro she said in the video that busking was her favorite thing

[@laurenkroeplin499]

Timothy Rowan I believe she does just for coin even when she sells out all her shows.

[@madd5]

It wouldn't be possible today. She's too famous.

[@MertBert]

Recently bought tickets for her show next year in Oslo, Norway. She's gonna play for 10.000 people at most in that arena!

[@unfortunato]

She's got life figured out to the core. Do the things you love and don't do them for money. Do them for happiness, that is our main goal in life.

[@maggiegrace1398]

what a goddess. she really truly feels her music as she’s performing.

[@kyannalenz5012]

You’re my new obsession Tash!!! Mad love and respect I’m sending from Tulsa, Oklahoma!!!

I was once busking and a guy came up, asked to see my extra guitar and proceeded to try to show me how to play my own song. He seriously tried to teach me the song I WROTE. I still get a chuckle.

[@abztractboxingandstuff8384]

I’m a busker and you really do get to see all the extremes of society. The nicest people, the worst people, the calmest people and the absolute craziest people! I’ve been told my playing changed someone’s bad day, been asked for 4 quid for cigarettes by a woman with a chain smoker voice, had someone pretending to drop some money but actually grab some instead and on....

Simply Wonderful !!
