It's a Wonderful World Over the Rainbow in Concord
A ukulele player serenaded passersby on a recent afternoon in Todos Santos Plaza. Here's a video of his rendition of a famous uplifting medley.
Amid the hustle and bustle of the farmers' market Tuesday afternoon, a singer and ukulele player named Aloox stood on the corner of Salvio and Mt. Diablo streets happily strumming melodies. His guitar case open before him in hopes of soliciting some spare change from the pockets of passersby, Aloox smiled as he sang and offered "God's blessings" to the people who smiled back.
Watch the video above to see Aloox perform the "Somewhere over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World" medley, originally by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole.
