I'm a fan of buskers, being that I know a few and have seen how much it means to them to even have a few onlookers toss a dollar their way. These buskers are a new discovery to me and soon to be discovered by many more people than the passers-by in their native city of San Francisco (especially since their appearance last year at SXSW). The Ferocious Few, a two man band a la The White Stripes or The Black Keys, have gained a following for their unique style of garage rock- subbing out the usual blues influence for a country/folk twang. The result is something like folk-punk. I'm not so good at naming genres...maybe because there are way too many already, so just listen and think happy thrash-punk-folk-rock thoughts.
Here's their music video for Loc'd Out, which chronicles a night of geurilla projections across the city set to their music. Rad.
