In this Tuesday, June 16, 2020, photo, musician Alix Julien, above, center, encourages 6-year-old Nova Sankara to dance as Alegba Jahyile, right, leads the band Alegba and Friends in a nightly concert at Brooklyn's Prospect Park boathouse in New York.
And then they were like, โThank you!โ And then it took a life on its own,โ said Alegba Jahyile, leader of Alegba and Friends.
But Kraszewski, who was busking for tips in Central Park last September, canโt believe the groupโs good fortune.
Alegba quickly realized that the Prospect Park boathouse would be a better spot than the park entrance,โ where people had no place to sit.
Prospect Park is Central Parkโs lesser-known, outer-borough sister, designed as well by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux.
