There are 10 public pianos spread out around Vancouver as part of the city’s Keys To The Streets music initiative.
Last month, Adam Sharp of Big Smoke Media stationed himself at Vancouver Folk Festival where he managed to shoot touring musicians performing on one of the pianos for his ongoing Keys To The Streets video series.
They found the talented Paloma Pendharkar, the star of the latest video, not on a stage, but selling 50-50 tickets.
Pendharkar, a singer/songwriter enrolled in the music program at Selkirk College, was one of 12 musicians invited to take part in the folk fest’s Young Artists Program.
She performed an ethereal version of her song We Live Here.
“Paloma Pendharkar approached us whilst selling 50/50 tickets as a volunteer for the festival to ask what we were doing, and ended up taking 5 minutes out of her day to play for us,” Sharp wrote in an email to the Vancouver Sun. “This is such a beautiful song, and as we attempt to capture some of Vancouver’s city flow in each video, could easily serve as something of a theme tune for our series.”
Pendharkar is also one half of the folk duo Tenise & Paloma. Their song Waves is worth a listen.
