'We took the streets' | A documentary on street performance in the modern day

A short documentary about three of Europe's most successful street-musicians. Each telling their own personal story behind their success, we discover that all cases of success come from the same, slightly unexpected angle.
Could it be that the street nowadays is one of the most powerful places to perform as an artist? Is the American dream literally to be found out on the streets?

This interview is a few years old now, but I felt it would be rather nice to add it to my channel all the same :)

Sitting here in Louisiana listening to Pappy Blues sing about New Orleans is surreal. Also, Daniel, if you ever tour the US, New Orleans has a pretty big street performer scene. I do suggest early spring or autumn since it's blazing hot here in the summer.
