The RPM Challenge

About

Description:

The two of us got together for the RPM Challenge and this is what happened. Listen to the samples below.

We have rocked out side by side playing covers for years but got creative for the 29 day challenge. This was our fist effort working together on originals. Between us we covered guitar, banjo, ukulele, harmonica, vocals, and keyboard. We ended up mostly eclectic acoustic with a smatering of electric but nether of us can drum so there are (kill me if you must) some drum machine tracks on board. We hope you like it. If you do, let us know. If not, be kind.

Group Members:

Tom Duffy and Dan Mathis
