Solid Sound Recording Company

Solid Sound Recording Company Stepping out of your vehicle you'll feel transported to a quiet, remote, northern escape. or Nashville.

By simply pulling up the long evergreen lined drive that leads to the studio, you'll sense the stresses and worries that plague the creative process drain away. However, this oasis is completely outfitted with state of the art technology you'd only expect to find in New York, L.A. Built in 1975 the studio's exterior was trimmed to merge with the natural surroundings. Inside, it was custom built to

famed acoustician George Augspurger's strictest specifications. Solid Sound is staffed by people who love their work.* They have chosen to live and work in a smaller city because it enables them to structure their lives and work to get the most enjoyment out of it. Their enjoyment shows in a friendly and relaxed style that rubs-off on musicians and singers. Being musicians ourselves we've experienced what it's like to be the recording artist. This knowledge allows us to make the recording process all the more comfortable. Over 30 years have passed and Solid Sound is still the premier facility for those who will accept nothing less than the best for their art.

* To us "work" is a four letter word; we're part of the lucky minority that sees what we do as getting paid to have fun. Here are a few artists we have had the pleasure of working with. Tori Amos, David Barrett, Beck, CBS Sports,45 North Productions, Ani Defranco, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, The Ben Daniels Band, Fox, Art Garfunkel,Amazin' Blue, The G-Men, Arlo Guthrie, Ella Riot, Emmylou Harris, Indigo Girls, Norah Jones, Joan Osborne, Joss Stone, Rachel Yamagata, Keb' Mo, Willie Nelson, Rodney Whittaker, The Romantics...and many more!

Almost like Sennheiser knew exactly what they were doing when they created the MD407. A compact, no frills mic that just so happens to excel at handling high SPL and has a convenient high mid range bump.

Swing by if you need help tracking your high speed guitar tracks. Low speed acceptable as well, as long as it’s groovy.

It was a good day at the massive recording studio estate sale. Grabbed this rack of gates and comps for a great price. Plus a gem that I literally can’t believe other people walked past….

More on that later…. In the meantime, swing by if you wanna punch up your drum sound. Valley’s have a sound all their own that you can’t replicate without em.

Another Rick Roe album mastered and off to the presses. I’ve lost count of how many projects we’ve collaborated on over the years. Going all the way back to the first time I meet him at Al Nalli Music in 1999 when I sold him a Yamaha stage piano. I think it was a P-80?

This new album has some real bangers! It’s the music of arranged by Rick and features a badass line up consisting of .elliot and

stopped in today and this was without a doubt the coolest session with a first time artist I’ve ever done. Jolie came in with a sweet tune, great arrangement and a ton of fun ideas. Felt like she’s been doing this for years.
