Über das Buch
Busking -- musicians playing along sidewalks for tips -- has long been a Madison, Wisconsin, tradition. But the practice took a new twist with the idea of filling Madison's most popular street with local musicians all playing for a single cause.
On Saturday, April 17, dozens of musicians played from 1 to 2 p.m. on the corners of State Street to raise funds and awareness for the Literacy Network, a non-profit organization that serves more than 1,300 people each year.
The author's profits from sales of this book also will go the Literacy Network.
