Brooklyn, NY native Kayade "K-Sax" Morris has been playing his saxaphone for five years in and out of the NYC subway. I got the chance to spend several hours with him underground to see what a day in the life of a subway busker is like.

Morris begins his work day as the morning rush hour dies down.

After a quick scan of the train car demographics, Morris caters his musical selection to what he believes his audience will enjoy the most.


Subway riders often pause their conversations, music or reading and turn their attention to Morris


Morris does not ride one train from start to end. While waiting for his next train, Morris occupies himself by practicing a few chords.

Morris straightens out and counts the dollar bills people give to him after a performance. He also accepts electronic donations as well.

With no access to soap and running water underground, Morris cleans his hands and face using water from his water bottle
