Beijing's street singer never lets you down

Street musician Zhang Mingyuan relaxes his eyes during a break at his daily performance at a square outside a shopping mall in Beijing July 7, 2014. Every night from 7pm till around midnight, any Beijinger who craves for a moment of music, can go and enjoy an open-air concert at the southeast corner outside a shopping mall of the city. Though it's held at a street corner and the singer, Zhang, doesn't belong to any of those famous music labels, the warm atmosphere he created seldom lets anyone down. Zhang, 31, gradually became a local sensation after starting his career as a street singer in Beijing since 2009 and selling around 40,000 copies of his own record. Picture taken on July 22, 2014.
