An amazing video has emerged of a homeless man with a rather impressive voice joining a busker for an impromptu jam on the street.
The footage, filmed in Leeds, UK on New Year's Eve, shows the busker, who is also the filmer, playing while the homeless man called Bernard sings along.
The filmer, who has been a busker and musician for 15 years, later wrote online: \" I was approached by a homeless man who asked if he could sing with me.
\"I spend a lot of time playing music on the streets and had seen this man many times over the years, but had never heard him sing.\"
\"He took to the mic and sang Summertime,\" he continued.
\"I was blown away by his voice and the passion of his delivery and I asked someone standing nearby to film the encounter on my phone.
The musician is the director of the Keep Streets Live Campaign, a not for profit organisation which advocates for public spaces which are open to informal offerings of art and music and against the criminalisation of homelessness.
