Streetnote: street music and musicians

Not Streetnotes.... but an exciting web site documenting the music of the streets

Streetnote

STREETNOTE


Streetnote is interested in addressing cultural and social concerns in the musical idiom. By bringing the street to the listener, streetnote tries to encapsulate an essence... 'a hopeful slice of urban life.'


streetnote is a genuine grassroots record label which educates the general public on issues from a point of view not often shared by the mainstream media.

streetnote is an empowerment project. It helps streetmusicians achieve a measurable degree of dignity and independence by giving them personalized and mastered demos of their work. Moreover, streetnote allows their music to travel to places beyond the streets they play in.


streetnote is a showcase for music and poetry, as well as a forum for streetmusicians in which to express themselves.
