No Instruments, No Problem: This Band Has Iphones

By now you might have heard the story of the band Atomic Tom. They made a video on a New York City subway using nothing but their voices and their Iphones. The video below shows them singing one of their original songs, called “Take Me Out”. The band started in 2006, but this video really took their music career to another level. The accomplishments of Atomic Tom are a great example of finding a creative way to follow your dreams.
