If you&#8217;ve ever been to a major city in the summer, it&#8217;s likely that you&#8217;ve stopped to Snapchat a street artist or two. There are some amazing artists who started their careers as buskers, like Ed Sheeran, Tracy Chapman, Rod Stewart, Passenger, and many more. It goes without saying that humans are talented and sometimes in the beginning, it&#8217;s all about getting noticed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On June 21<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, there&#8217;s an opportunity to see undiscovered talent all across the five boroughs of New York. The daylong event is called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.makemusicny.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Make Music New York<\/a>, where musicians of all ages can register to gather in public spaces and hold concerts. This year, there&#8217;s expected to be over 1,000 free concerts throughout public spaces in the city. Entering into its 11<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">th<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> year, Make Music New York intends to hold the biggest music event to meet the Metro New York area ever. Featured all over the city will be bands and lone musicians doing what they love all day. Artists will pack sidewalks, alleys, parks, cemeteries, streets, and plazas, to ensure that New York is booming all day long. <\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17207\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17207\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/whoweare.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-17207\" src=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/whoweare-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"make music new york\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17207\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photo Credit: Make Music New York<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u00a0will also be Mass Appeal concerts throughout the day.
