Keep Streets Live Podcast Ep 1 David Fisher

Welcome to episode one of the Keep Streets Live podcast where I've interviewed busker and singer/songwriter David Fisher. First we chat about David's album Busking Beyond Borders which also includes a book of stories about his busking adventures in Europe.

 The next part of the interview focuses on David's letter to Coventry Council about their misuse of a Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) to prevent busking which has been added to the Keep Streets Live website as a template for other people to use.

 David shares his thoughts on the controversial Public Space Protection Order legislation in England and Wales.

 To finish the Podcast David plays us one of his songs People Say.
