One week to go... next Friday is the start of the Pavilion Festival down the Low Green, in Ayr.
3 days of Live entertainment, something for everyone and just a tremendous thing to be happening on your doorstep.
Don't miss it and spend the following week listening to how incredible it was. Get in there, it's gonna be Epic 🤘
There's been huge excitement and crazy good vibes in the studio over the last few months with the build up to this event.
9 of the bands supporting james on the Friday practice here regularly, some twice a week, some are residents with their own room and every one of them are buzzing to get on that stage.. for most it will be their biggest gig so far.
Mixed Signals
Oscura
The Mocking Byrds
Seaside Sons
Ecko
Pelikan Rogue
Static Sky
Box of Trash
Local Authority

Wishing the best of luck to each and every act over the whole weekend, some massive names and who knows.. a star could be born 🙏😎

Total respect and admiration for Ewan McVicar, from Kincaidston, fellow Zulu boy, who made this thing happen.
Ewan did a couple of small events in the studio, called TEN, back in the day before his success and breakthrough.
Well chuffed and very proud of the fact the studio has helped in a small way to assist in the development and progression of these local acts and artists.
Next Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Pavilion Festival, doon the Low Green

Canny wait 😎

Much love ❤️

Hi folks, the time has come and I've no option but to increase the cost of rehearsals in the studio.

They've been the same for over 22 years.

Times have changed. Huge increases in the price of gas and electricity is the main reason but there's many others.

As of Saturday 1st March this year, the new cost will be as follows:

A standard 3 hour rehearsal for a full band ( 3 members or more ) is £40. 00

Duo, 2 people, for a 3hr rehearsal is £30.00

Solo, one person for a 3hr rehearsal is £15.00

For full bands, 2nd or 3rd rehearsal in the same week as your 1st is £30.00

Any questions, fire away.

Rest assured this increase will not only save us from closure but allow us to improve the equipment and expand the facility, making it a really great space to come to.

Interested to hear your thoughts, please share this post, thanks.

Much love x

Hi folks, bad news on the event unfortunately 🙁
My 10 year personal license expires next year but apparently i need to refresh it every 5.
I resit it on the 10th Oct (earliest I can) then I can apply for the event license which takes 4 weeks.
Missed the Halloween date.
Burst ye.
However, once things are in place we intend to do an event that will eclipse anything we've done before 🤘
The future's bright.
I'll keep you posted x

Hi folks - finally got the problem with studio page resolved - for the past few months I haven't had any access...

Hi folks - finally got the problem with studio page resolved - for the past few months I haven't had any access to the page.

Sincere apologies to anyone that has been inconvenienced by this.

All good now.

Also, thinking about doing another big event in the studio - possibly a Halloween Bandwagon (likely Sat 26th Oct). If any bands, DJ's, duets, quartets, french horn ensembles or solo artists are up for it, give me a shout on here.

Much love x

Hi folks, as you know the rising costs of gas and electricity is affecting all business's and unfortunately the studio has had to make some difficult decisions which we've no doubt will upset some of you who come in on a regular basis.
The new rules are as follows :
1. Any band who cancels their rehearsal on the same day it was booked will be rounded up in front of the studio and shot by firing squad.
2. Any drummer who is caught stealing felts will have all fingers and toenails pulled out with pliers.
3. Any guitarist found to have turned the gain level to maximum will be strung up by the testicles on the lamppost in front of the studio, for a minimum of 24 hrs.
4. Any vocalists caught stealing, swinging or dropping a mic intentionally will be fed to a pride of lions in the blue room.

Seriously though, at some point we're gonna have to raise the prices, been holding back for a while now.

Thanks for coming down, no matter how often, you're support is appreciated more than you know.

Enjoy your weekend 😊

Much love x

The more I practice, the luckier I get, a famous quote by golfer Gary Player.
Weirdly, the bands that practice more tend to be the bands who end up really tight, get the good gigs and have a better chance of getting anywhere, it's unbelievable.
Cough.

Good evening Live music lovers of the shire, we'd just like to clarify a few things regarding the studio... incase you don't know...no money or wages are paid by the studio.
All work is done on a voluntary basis.
It's a limited company where no one takes dividends and any profit is reinvested in the studio.
For any band using the studio for the first time, it's free.
Rehearsal slots are only 30 quid for 3hrs, any other rehearsal in that week is 20 quid, to encourage people to jam more and make the band tighter.
The studio doesn't provide guitars, straps, pedals, leads, picks, cymbals, high hat clutches or sticks, but if you forget them or need them don't worry, we have them here and we'll sort you out, we've never charged a penny for any of these things.
Booking slots early,, turning up on time, not going over your time and tyding up before you leave is a good start in making your evperience in the studio more productive. We see you.
Don't steal the mics or felts 👍
If you're a regular in the studio you'll know that borrowing a drum kit, a bass amp, a guitar amp, a head, a coupla mics for the gig at the weekend.. it's all free of charge, we try to help you and encourage you to do well.
Any drummer, guitarist, vocalist, anyone on their own can rent a room for 3hrs during the day, 9am - 6pm for a tenner.
If you've never been, if you've even remotely considered it, get yourself down here and start doing the thing you've been putting off, the thing you would love more than anything, the thing you've just never got round to... it's here, it's free and waiting on you... incase you don't know.
Much love,
Soundmagic x

With two rehearsal rooms open, recording back in full flow and the front of the studio timber lined in cedar, things are looking better.
We'll be focusing on events soon, Bandwagon, Zombie nights and loads more.
Our main aim of getting the new venue and extension to the studio above board and licensed legally is still under way, hopefully we can update you on that soon 🙏
Until then keep on rockin, take it easy, roll with it and we'll see you very soon X
