New York Buskers Rule Union Square Subway
Maggie is a self-professed music junkie who is always willing to pay attention to New York's street entertainers. When she encountered TOO MANY ZOOZ performing at Union Square, she was so blown away that she let her train pass by three times while she stood watching. Maggie was unlucky to discover that she had no cash in her wallet to give them, but promised to post the video on Facebook instead, where it has gained over 15 million views.

I don't know how this guy managed to do a bass drop with a goddamned saxophone but he did it.

+MisterMajister That's not quite doing the instrument justice. I mean, Tenor Alto and Soprano all have a very similar tone, with the difference being they play in different registers. While sure, bari sax is in line register wise it has a much grittier tone than the other saxes and that's on full display here.

I challenge anyone to sit still while listening two these two talented guys.
It's 2023, 7 years after this video was made. I don't know who these guys are, but they are fantastic. Did they ever make it big? Do we have their names? Some serious talent right here. Keep up the good work, my talented buskers! ✌️♥️🎶

The name of group is Too Many Zooz. They have their own youtube channel as well.
These guys are AMAZING. I've caught them in person a couple of times; they usually have a third person as well.

beast mode initiated! It's a pity most of those ppl walking by couldn't appreciate the beauty of this
the fact that he hasnt choked on that reed is fucking amazing
To the people who did this performance, you guys are awesome. I play Bari. Sax and playing music like that is what slays me. Keep doing what you two are doing. We need more people doing things like this.

SO GLAD YOU POSTED THEIR NAME! I wish I could have been there just to tip, that was AMAZING!
I truly love this kind of stuff. It isn't that most people need a job, it is they need an income. I love how these two took their gifts and made a way to create a cash stream for themselves. This is what I love talking about and sharing. Great job guys! Just awesome!
Incredibly fun what a breath of fresh air . I don't live in nyc but if I did I would be LATE for work
I could listen to them all day, just awesome.
needs more cow bell!
No matter how many times I see this, I still crack up when the guy starts spinning in circles. Serious talent right here.
That's pretty damn high for a bari

Inspirational! This duet deserves a record contract and an international tour. I'd pay to see them in concert. God bless you guys!
7 years later and it's still a bop.
Epic Sax Guy has been outdone.
What an amazing performance. If only Brisbane had buskers like this! I would buy your CD for sure. The dancing of the guy with the green hair, especially doing the circles is hilarious and kills me
I've watched this video twice and I'm still amazed by it. They have so much energy you can just feel it!
send this Ellen Degeneres show she would probably bring them on her show

It's hard enough playing the baritone sax without his dancing! Great duo!!
This sounds like the soundtrack for some sort of wacky high-energy chase scene going through the streets, subways, and rooftops of Manhattan.
These guys are bloody brilliant!
Besides the lovely music, fuckin' solid microphone on that phone.
wow i love it thanks so much for posting this

What I enjoy most is how INTO IT both of these guys are. You know you're into the music when...
Absolutely AMAZING talent. The energy and passion they are putting into their artistry is admirable. If only more people were brave enough to pursue things they enjoyed.
It wants to make me move!.. It makes me happy!... It wants to make me dance like crazy... I can feel your sound!... This is what I call GROOVE!... Simple but heavy!... Great talent!...

Music is organized noise and tones. God is flowing through them.
I want to hear and see more please. This is absolutely a cure for the Holiday blues. This is REAL talent and shows such TRUE passion. Thank you. Where they playing at next and are there Tickets yet to go see them in Concert ?Keep me posted👏🏻🙏🏻
