Art & Design by Walter Alice Sickert


18 Years of RPM and Counting

A note from Edrie:

The first RPM challenge started what would become the artistic direction that we’ve now spent 18 years traveling.

Walter and I met during the time of the 1st RPM challenge
February has always been a time of renewal and change for us. Our daughter Wednesday, now 8, was born in February. We’ve premiered plays, moved houses, lost jobs, got new jobs, been on tour, witnessed weddings, shoveled feet of snow, mourned losses; and yet, we’ve released an album every February every year of the challenge.

No matter what February has brought – we’ve made time to make music


Walter has continued BUNKER BUDS, a daily dystopian talk show dedicated to bringing joy in to the often bleak loneliness of quarantine. They have touched thousands of folks with hundreds of episodes dedicated to helping people see the good and the light of artistic fellowship.

Let Yourself Love Yourself.

Ghost Parade is our 18th RPM offering and is dedicated to the last 18 years of RPMs and to the people, places, and things that have made us who we are today.

Thank you RPM!

Thank you for the space to create and for the reminder that no matter what obstacles the world tossed in our way, we made music.


Love & Tentacles,

Edrie, Walter, Wednesday & the rest of the Broken Toys
