As long as the drumsticks can make a sound, any object can become an instrument. Gordo, the drummer of Australian band Shamanic, uses four or five plastic buckets and two drumsticks in his "bucket drumming" to smoothly produce dazzling, fast-paced and ever-changing rhythms.

The following video showcases Gordo’s brilliant performance on the streets of Sydney CBD (Central Business District). If you’re visiting Sydney, be sure to stop and admire his astounding skills.

Not just buckets—he has also used suitcases, frying pans, and metal drums as instruments to demonstrate his professional drumming prowess.

Gordo’s real name is Lachlan Robinson. He learned drumming in Japan before moving to Australia to join the band Shamanic. The band’s name "Shamanic" means “spiritual” or “mystical” in Chinese. The members are mainly influenced by classic rock bands from the 1960s–1970s, including The Beatles, Rolling Stones, and Led Zeppelin. The current lineup includes lead vocalist and guitarist David Sharp, drummer Lachlan Robinson (Gordo), and bassist Siebe Carl Pogson.
