The Gutter Strings, Santa Cruz

Ran into this rowdy bunch of gutter punks saw playing traditional folk tunes and new americana ballads on the pedestrian mall of Santa Cruz, California. With acoustic string instruments and a musical saw they covered expenses of their ‘tour’ by adhering to a serious regiment of busking. That’s life in acts with multiple performers where tips get split three, four, five ways.
