Bringabye

I was part of a bill the other night that included some amazing khomus (jews harp) players from Sakha, Siberia. It was an evening of boing and twang that I was honored to be a part of. Here's a piece of mine from that night - I'm playing the mouthbow. Video here.

Nice. So what's the kickdrum deal your triggering with your foot there, just out of frame?

Ack, nevermind, I'm an idiot. Stompbox, got it.

Wow, very impressive man! You and this guy are bringing back a lost art (one man band). (Pretty lost as far as I know of, anyway.) I can't even imagine having the kind of multi-body-part coordination that you have. Kick ass.

(I thought you might dig the Didgereedoo Man.)
