Evidently having only a saxophone as a music instrument, the Busker will only play songs that may also be heard on the [[Jazz Nation Radio 108.5]] radio station. In most of his appearances, the busker is depicted with a buttoned up brown trench coat, and his music can easily be heard within hearing distance, a hint he is near the player. Most buskers also wear occasionally a hat depicting he may be poorer then others by it's worness.
