The project started as a jam night a few years ago. Randy and Joseph with a mutual friend (Michael Desheles) would get together on Friday night and sing gospel and cover tunes. In the first year they would play a song written Randy called "Damn You". When Michaels work schedule changed he was unable to attend the jams session. That's when Randy and Joseph started moving their efforts towards writing songs. It's also when the name changed from "Randy Joe Michael" to "Randy Joe" It took about a year to write the songs for their first CD titled "Curse in Disguise". They really didn't have a specific direction they were headed, so the CD has some rock, country and blues. They recorded all the songs at Hi-Z Input Productions with the help of Harry Sharpe .
