Making a Track w/ a 1-string Diddley Bow & a 15-string Harp

Here's another crazy idea that somehow made its way into a video. I decided to combine the instrument with the least strings and the instrument with the most strings to create a track. It ended up sounding pretty good.

Intro - 0:00
Song - 1:13

You can find the diddley bow video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0OC0uAa_4U

And the harp unboxing video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lTWxBp-1GQ

Thanks for that Doug. It's always good when music puts a smile on anyone's face. Good luck with the busking. Can't wait to see the vids.

You put a smile on my face this morning Kale! You are a creative musical genius. Fun and original.

I’m off to prepare the Slingers to do some busking! It’s Street Music Week in Spokane and musicians will be busking all week from noon to 1 for charity. We are going to join the fray on Thursday! Should be fun.

"Cool Combo Poorness" very well put together, and very easy to listen to :-)
