One-man band:
A one-man band is a musician who plays
a number of instruments simultaneously
using their hands, feet, limbs, and various
mechanical and/or electronic contraptions.
The simplest type of "one-person band” -
a singer accompanying themselves on acoustic guitar
and harmonica mounted in a metal "harp rack” below
the mouth - is often used by buskers.
More complicated setups may include wind instruments
strapped around the neck, a large bass drum mounted on
the musician's back with a beater which is connected
to a foot pedal, cymbals strapped between the knees or
triggered by a pedal mechanism, tambourines andmaracas
tied to the limbs, and a stringed instrument strapped over
the shoulders (e.g., a banjo, ukulele or guitar).
Since the development of Musical Instrument Digital Interface
(MIDI) in the 1980s, musicians have also incorporated
chest-mounted MIDI drum pads, foot-mounted electronic drum
triggers, and electronic pedal keyboards into their set-ups.
