Colin Huggins (born January 6, 1978) is an American classical pianist and busker who travels with a baby grand piano. Huggins started playing guitar at an early age, and took piano lessons from 1994 to 1998, but then quit, and worked odd jobs for some time. He moved to New York City in 2003, and spent four years working as an accompanyist for ballet dancers at the Joffrey Ballet, before beginning to busk in 2007. He brought his upright piano to Father Demo Square or Union Square, and busked there, until police and nearby residents began to complain about the large crowds he would attract while playing; he subsequently began playing in the New York City Subway—where he made an appearance on the television series Louie〔(【引用サイトリンク】date= July 28, 2011 )〕—and at Washington Square Park two to three days per week, for up to twelve hours at a time. At the time, the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation was ticketing musicians performing near monuments and park benches, and for that reason, he was fined over $6,000 in 2011; though that policy has since been revoked. A crowdfunding campaign raised enough money for Huggins to purchase a baby grand piano, which is now his everyday instrument. ==References==
