Dave Southern is a fatherly figure to many in the UK busking scene these days, always ready and able to dispense advice from his nearly 40 years of experience. Dave has been in some of the best touring groups of the late 80s and 90s and continued to be one of the most skilled shows at the craft of street performance. He has been a champion and guiding hand to the future generations of busker and has worked with organisations such as “keep streets live” to do just that and facilitate the continued free use of public spaces by performers.
