Play at Home Challenge: Artist Edition

Posted Jun 03, 2020

Artist / #WeMakePRS

The "Play at Home Challenge" is all about jamming at home, having fun, and honing your chops. We asked PRS artists around the world to contribute to this fun challenge by either sending in the tracks to one of their songs, or creating a unique backing track for you to play to!

The artists came through with 8 uniquely interesting tracks. Below, watch each PRS artist play their own take, then download them and give it your own spin - have fun!

If you like what you've created, be sure to post your playing over any track using the hashtags #playathome and #myPRS - we're looking forward to seeing your creativity!

SIMON MCBRIDE
