Subject: Nile Rodgers Makes £12.30 Busking In London

Written By: Philip Eno on 06/22/15 at 2:24 pm

Musician Nile Rodgers earned £12.30 after busking in disguise on London's Southbank.

Commuters and tourists were treated to a live performance from the Chic star just hours after he played in front of thousands in Hyde Park for the British Summertime festival.

Rodgers wore a hat, dark glasses and scarf to play his guitar and sing by the Thames with his instrument case open for donations.

He posted photos of himself after the event, explaining: "Today I went busking on the #London Southbank."

"Didn't draw much of a crowd until I stared playing dance music. Hmm?"

He went on to write: "Though I had no voice from screaming during last night's show, I started to draw a crowd when I sang "Aw Freak Out!"

When asked by a fan on Twitter how many people immediately recognised him he replied: "Not many until I started playing @CHICorg songs. Then it was on!
