Trad & Folk Musicians
Shovelling out the music...
Con Whelton from Cork, plays an unusual looking instrument which he fashioned from an old grain shovel.
He added 4 strings, put a guitar pick-up at the back which is linked up to an amplifier. He plays it in Banjo style - I suppose you could call it a Shovanjo!
