STEVEN Bowyer TRIPP is an Australian songwriter and street performer who has been challenging authority since the 1970s. 

"They say that music is "The Universal Language and I have had first hand experience to prove that it's true.  

The most magical moment I ever experienced out on the streets occurred one cold and blustering Kings Cross night while my busking companions and I were performing a Bob Dylan classic for the crowd.  I was surrounded by people young and old from all walks of life and a number of different nationalities.

All in attendance were singing the chorus of 'Blowing in the wind' when out of the night a spirit lifting wave of tribal unity descended upon our gathering.  For a fleeting moment it felt like I was at a new age love fest.

In the years that followed I was host to a number of similar events which got me thinking 'The Human family' might not be such an absurd notion after all." - Steven Tripp
