Still reeling from last nights Best Of Nashville awards. We were nominated for Best Recording Studio in Nashville for the SECOND YEAR IN A ROW!! Quite honestly, we thought last year was a fluke. Maybe somebody has some fun with a voting bot or something….but this year it’s starting to sink in. This is arguably the biggest “pond” in the world when it comes to recording studios. To be in the mix with multi-room, many multi million dollar recording complexes begs the question: what is “best”? Do we have the best equipment? No way. Are we the most expensive? Not even close. Are we the least expensive? Nope. Did we do an ad campaign to get votes? Um…no. So why are we getting voted for the best studio? I can only guess that it has something to do with best value and / or that artists come away feeling really good with their decision to record here- that they made the best choice for their music and career….and I hope that we made them feel the best while they were here because we’re one of them; not a big corporation. Maybe I’m wrong, maybe it was another fluke this year too. Either way we’re going to keep doing what we’re doing for the good people of the world. -Chris & Yoli Mara

We’ve been having a blast with one of our favorite artists this week (can’t say who yet…). Fun drum sounds with a mic in a big water bottle, a trick from the late great Mark Rubel.

Welcome to 1979

Welcome to 1979 is a Recording Studio Like No Other!

Our goal is to be a contradiction in terms: Irreverent yet highly respectful, playful but very focused, comfortable and relaxed while being professional and hard working. We are steeped in heritage yet are cutting edge, stand alone in our ethos but also collaborative in our community, leaders and educators yet willing to learn and are constantly improving. All of these traits allow us to foster a warm, inviting and affordable recording environment for independent and label artists alike. We are fueled by dedicated owners and staff whose purpose in life is to provide a positive experience for the good people of the world by helping fan the flames of creativity and exceeding even the highest expectations.
