Len Xiang is a guitar playing, soulful singing busker. He considers himself a musician on the train but he's so much more than that. He rearranges choice songs to his minimal acoustic guitar and gut wrenching vocals.
He has been playing guitar for four years, he taught himself from videos he found on youtube. From there just trial and error and practicing either at his home or coming down to the subway and performing. Since he doesn't know any chords he modifies the standards that he sings and that's how he finds these really interesting songs. In his words and our thoughts \"they end up really cool.\"
On occasion while Len is wrapped up in the moment singing one of his standards he will find on the subway, through a window a waving fan so excited that they caught his eye. These moments are what make playing music worth while to Len.
