A busker with an unusual ‘piano bike’ has arrived in Margate today (August 11) as part of her bid to play in every town in the UK.

Chloe Marie Aston, who is a singer from North Devon, started busking at the age of 14 but says the guitar strings hurt her fingers.

On her website she adds: “This is when my Dad came up with the idea of a piano on a bike. Soon after we started building it together and it was ready for the summer of 2019. “I finished school in 2020 and since then, I have been improving my song writing skills and have released a few songs using a distributing app.

“ I am now studying a music performance course in further education, whilst building my presence on YouTube by releasing music videos for my original songs, as well as covers and of course I am still busking with my Piano Bike!”

Chloe has played her piano bike in around 200 towns so far.

    • I don’t know what the equivelant to a female pillock is Joan, but you are one! Why don’t you try giving up everything you own, and try landing in France without a Passport, possibly with a small child, and try asking the Frence for asylum? If you can’t provide any identification, you will probably end up in some sort of filthy squalid room, with 3 or more women, from different countries while your claim is asssessed which may take months. Why not give it a try?

  1. Brilliant. I wish her all success .
    Has she seen Rimski and Handkerchief’s not dissimilar act, I wonder? Similar concept but a very different one at the same time.

  2. 😂😂😂😂 you are funny why don’t you take these people in then,they come from a safe country and pay to get here.
    Or you could give everything up to live over in France with these people
    But I guess you won’t.shame!
