STREET ART FAIR STREET PERFORMERS
In the Ingalls Mall area, throughout the fair
Mr. B
Acclaimed Ann Arbor boogie-woogie pianist Mark Braun (aka Mr. B) has been part of the Street Art Fair for 30 years. He's just back from his third annual Joybox Express Tour, in which he hauls his piano across Michigan by bicycle, playing concerts for charity along the way.
George Tait - The Living Statue
George Tait has been bending the minds of audiences around the world with his "Psychological Magic" and "Living Statue" for over 10 years and is a returning favorite at the Street Art Fair.
Bob Culbertson
Bob Culbertson began playing the stick over 30 years ago, and since then he has sold more than 100,000 albums and taught several hundred students. The stick is a 10- to 12-tring instrument that bears both guitar and bass elements. The player taps the strings with their fingertips to make sound vibrations, similar to playing a piano. Each hand moves independently of the other to produce a rich blend of melodies, bass and chords.
