🗞️ARC V3 📰

We’re extremely excited to announce that Akron Recording Company has purchased a building! Thanks to our community, family & friends for your continued support over the last 8 years! We truly appreciate every single artist, band, organization, audio session, video production, & live sound gig that we’ve been a part of over the years! With your help we’re turning our dreams of owning property into a reality!

Along with our good friend & engineer We have acquired a property that’s been in Benny’s family since 1961! His great grandparents Ralph & Theresa Wilson started Wilson Plumbing & Heating in 1958 and then purchased 445 W. Cedar St.,
originally built in 1919 for The Averill Dairy Co. The building has been in the family ever since and we’re so thrilled to be continuing the legacy!

A brick 20,000 square ft. building that has tons of character & charm. It’s a mix of office & warehouse space and is in the Five Points neighborhood just outside of downtown. Not only is the building the new home for ARC, but it will soon become a hub for all things music & art in Akron!

We can’t wait for all of the new opportunities and ventures to take form
BUT in the meantime ARC has officially moved and already has the studio setup! We have an amazing 3,000 sq ft space that has ALL of our gear & still ALL of that ARC charm!

We’re currently booking audio & video sessions for December & beyond so come by and check out our new digs! We’ve already been working there all month with clients and have been LOVING the results in the new building! 💚

In ARC News 🗞️:

Recently we had some amazing jazz artists visit us from out of state! It feels really special when people make the journey to Akron, they could be anywhere in the world but they’re right here at ARC!

In October we had the great pleasure of working with visiting from Maryland & captured an awesome set of live audio & video w his all star group Stephen Philip Harvey Octet (SPH8) which features a stellar cast including a few local Akron/Cle musicians! Stephen brings his groups to Akron & Cle frequently so be sure to check them out!

Late in August we had the amazing visit us with her band from NYC to perform a couple jazz standards with a special twist & more! We were so lucky to capture audio & video of them swingin’ in full force. A truly incredible voice and band!

Sharing the recording studio with an artist is such a great bonding experience. At ARC we try hard to make each session a memorable one both through the music captured & the laughs shared! When we have guests travel in from out of state we want to help represent the best of Akron and show them why it’s a great place for music & art! If you’re traveling through northeast Ohio on tour, looking for an escape to produce your next project or are local to the area and need a new studio, hit us up to learn more! 💚
