Synopsis:

Gemma Boyd speaks with the unsweetened spirit of a warrior in 'Diaries of a Multi-instrumentalist: Busking Acoustically on the London Underground'. Her vibrant descriptions and her own poetry place you beside her as she shapes sound waves in tunnels to compete with screeching station announcements and encounters an unpredictable parade of characters you can almost smell.

Journey with her from pitch to pitch around pre-Brexit London's famous landmarks, Brighton and Hove and Montmartre, Paris, as she replays anecdotes of musical engagements and shares often amusing bordering on shocking observations of the types of reactions her Irish folk and jazz melodies have attracted.

This is a colloquial account where you will learn about the delicate physiology of an acoustic double bassist, violinist and piano accordionist who has battled injury and overcome tragedy to pursue both her deep love for music and a desire to bring out and reflect back to them people's humanity.
