Crammed full of mouthwatering equipment, the studio boasts amazing rooms and a magical vibe, and thrives on a no-compromise approach to quality. Having been home to some of the worlds most prestigious bands such as Oasis, The Arctic Monkeys, Bring Me The Horizon, Ben Howard, Jake Bugg, The 1975, Blood Red Shoes, The Coral, and Grandmaster Flash, the studio is thoroughly steeped in British musical

history. It is currently the home of producer/mixer Al Groves (Bring Me The Horizon/Cast/Southern/Louis Berry/Etches). The Motor Museum revolves around a variety of stunning recording spaces, including a large live and stone room, the latter of which drawing clients from all over the country to record in. Fully kitted out to satisfy mix projects as well, you'll find a vintage Neve 8232 analogue console and stacks of top-end outboard. An exceptional spec highlighted by a vast range of terrific microphones, instruments and backline complete an outstanding package and cement it as the premier studio in Liverpool. Hidden away in an expansive day-lit warehouse in the fashionable Lark Lane district of South Liverpool, sessions thrive in this secluded and immensely creative studio, which is famous for its highly original themes; blending Mediterranean architecture with colorful and exotic decorations, creating an alluring inner-city studio paradise...

Meet the owner, Al Groves ✶♫⋆

After moving to Liverpool for university, Al was invited to become manager and resident producer of the Motor Museum in 2012. Later, he was enthusiastically entrusted with the ownership of the studio by local legend Andy McCluskey. Al Groves is now a platinum record engineer and producer, with clients including Bring Me The Horizon, The Sherlocks, STONE, Crawlers, Cast and Blanket.

Al Groves:

I am the proud owner of The Motor Museum. Together with the team I curate the sonic palette, design the environment, and optimise the client experience and recording services that it offers.

I think an inspiring environment has such a positive impact on creativity, and the presentation of a studio reflects the attitude of the people behind it.

Studio’s are places where amazing people come together to create remarkable art, and it is a huge privilege to be among the community of incredible talent that frequent my studio.

I promote a culture that always strives for excellence and supports people to own their successes and recognise others’. I believe anything is possible if you work hard enough, and ambition can be incredibly powerful.

Music and record-making permeate my entire life, but outside of work my other big pleasures are my family, tiki cocktails, Formula One and BMX.

Our outboard rack of unique tools, each one different, that software recreations just can’t capture. These are deeply ingrained into the system of our studio.

As Creative & Communications Manager, I run the Motor Museum’s socials. You’re talking to me when you’re all up in our DMs! My role is to take photographs and videos of our beautiful studio, lovely team and inspiring clients, as well as collaborating with industry leading companies.

When I’m not in the studio, I’m working with my band, deep diving Pinterest and playing with my sphynx cats. You can usually find me somewhere on Lark Lane with a friend & a matcha 𖤣.𖥧.𖡼.⚘

Did you know suggests a phone ban when recording in the studio?

Of course this eradicates distractions, but more importantly, it gives the mind a break from outside influence, meaning what you make in the studio is completely unique & from the heart.

The Motor Museum is here to help you cultivate the sound of your soul, encourage true creativity, experiment without fear.

Is it corny? No, because it works 😉
