Every year, Rob Scallon and Andrew Huang write and record an album in a day. For 2025, they did it in an open Guitar Center – and used any gear they wanted

First of October.

Rob Scallon has taken his annual First of October project to a new level by recording an album in a day inside an open Guitar Center.

It's been a yearly challenge for Scallon and his co-writer and co-conspirator Andrew Huang since 2018. It finds them writing and recording an entire album in around 12 hours, with their trials and tribulations all captured on camera.
