Music Under New York
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Music Under New York (MUNY) is a program sponsored by the Metropolitan Transit Authority which allows musicians and street performers to legally perform in New York Subway stops. The program began in 1987, and is part of the MTA's "Arts for Transit" program.[1]
Many of the musicians who play in the subway under MUNY have illustrious careers above ground. The following MUNY musicians have performed at Carnegie Hall: Natalia Paruz - also known as the 'Saw Lady' (musical saw), James Graseck (violin), Ebony Hillbillies.
