  • Thanks ! Yep, it was popularized once again with the Donovan song "Hurdy-Gurdy Man", however, no Hurdies were played, or injured in the making of his song :)

    Check out our other video of the Alboka, which is another obscure instrument, this time from the Basque Country.

  • thats badass! I love the Hurdy Gurdy, I think most people know it from the song by Donovin in the 60s, always been fascinated by machines/instruments that "drone" or play multi octaves at once, bag pipe, pipe organs etc..I built a machine that just made the drone once, it used a bike wheel belt powered w/sewing machine motor. the "drone" string was 4 ft long. and metal.
