Chikezie uses a banjo in his Idol performance of Shes A WomanThis past week’s American Idol had the various contestants interpreting the music of The Beatles, and one competitor, Chikezie, started his version of She’s A Woman with a banjo and a fiddle.

The grassyness only lasted through the first verse, but I guess it’s still a milestone worth marking.

There is video of the full performance on the Idol web site.
