street bands
Outdoor performing groups
Street bands are musical groups that perform outdoors in public spaces—sidewalks, plazas, subway stations.
The term covers everything from jazz ensembles to brass bands to buskers with drums and guitars.
Street bands may play for tips, for the joy of it, or as part of cultural traditions like New Orleans second-line parades: We followed the street band through the French Quarter.
