An amazing video has emerged of a homeless man with a rather impressive voice joining a busker for an impromptu jam on the street. <br /><br />The footage, filmed in Leeds, UK on New Year's Eve, shows the busker playing while the homeless man called Bernard sings along. <br /><br />The performer, who has been a busker and musician for 15 years, later wrote online: " I was approached by a homeless man who asked if he could sing with me. <br /><br />"I spend a lot of time playing music on the streets and had seen this man many times over the years, but had never heard him sing." <br /><br />"He took to the mic and sang Summertime," he continued. <br /><br />"I was blown away by his voice and the passion of his delivery and I asked someone standing nearby to film the encounter on my phone.<br /><br />The musician is the director of the Keep Streets Live Campaign, a not for profit organisation which advocates for public spaces which are open to informal offerings of art and music and against the criminalisation of homelessness.
