Graham Brooks and his Golden Cup accordion is a regular staple in my neighborhood. You can usually catch him on Clement Street in the Richmond District or in the Inner Sunset on Irving Street playing his tunes. I caught him while back playing on Clement Street after Mike Klepka of the SF Chronicle did a short photo essay on him on The City Exposed. I briefly talked to him to tell him that I indeed saw the article and that he was famous. He chuckled and started playing his accordion for me to take a snap shot of him. I, of course, left him a few dollars so he can continue his craft.
