He began singing and playing on the streets of Americus in 1939, and later "from Atlanta to Thomasville". He worked with white blind musicians, and recalled their all having been run off the streets. He later concentrated his efforts on Macon, Georgia (within easy traveling distance of his home in Americus), where he was once jailed for singing on the street. Photographs and videos show him playing both six-string guitar (both conventional acoustic and resonator, often using a bottleneck) and twelve-string guitar. The 1977 documentary It's a Mean Old World captures the style of his street performance: walking slowly along the sidewalk, singing and playing, with a handwritten sign around his neck reading "I am a blind preacher. Please help me, thank you. Rev. Pearly Brown, Americus, GA". There is a collection cup attached to the neck of his guitar. Most passers-by ignore him; but one stops to put something in the cup, and to talk briefly with him.
