Bowing Things That Shouldn't Be Bowed

Genuinely surprised at the amount of sounds you can make with a bow, and the amount of things that work with a bow is crazy too. Theres more to the game than just bowed guitar and bowed electric bass! In this video I use a cello bow to make sounds with a bike wheel, bowed marimba, fire extinguisher, various found percussion and (junk percussion), scrap metal, singing saw, lamp, watering can, and shovel.

Bowing guitars and xylophones are real legitimate techniques. The musical saw is a real instrument and it sounds beautiful. So yes, you should bow them.

That saw actually sounds great w/ a Bow

[@myotiswii]

My ensemble did a little bit of vibraphone bowing during one of our concerts. The report said that we were using 'Interesting and Innovative techniques'. Like bruh. It's super common. It sounds really nice as well.
