Sound that comes from artist performing (6)
I believe the answer is:
strait
'sound' is the definition.
(I know that sound can be written as strait)
'artist performing' is the wordplay.
'performing' is an anagram indicator.
'artist' is an anagram of 'STRAIT'.
'that comes from' is the link.
(Other definitions for strait that I've seen before include "watery scene?" , "Narrow watery stretch" , "Narrow sea-channel" , "-- -laced (prudish)" , "Narrow passage joining two large areas of water" .)
