Ian Luther was inspired to write 'The Lonesome Busker' in memory of friend and fellow musician 'Nipper' Nasey... a man who just loved busking. This soulful ballad (soon to be released as a single) is sure to strike a chord with many. It's a poignant comment on the isolation that can be enforced on us by modern living, even when surrounded by many other people.... actually, no it's not, it's about buskers. Performed by Ian Luther on guitar and vocals and Rachel Lane on double bass and backing vocals, the video was filmed in Newport, South Wales, and Rodmoor Mill Studios. Thanks go to Alex, Roger, Dave, Angharad and John for making this video possible. http://www.ianluther.co.uk
