Crashbox Rehearsal and Recording Studio

06/08/2019

Hey Folks....

Many of you are aware that Crashbox Studios ...has recently closed it's doors for good. It was an awesome 10 years! As such I've got plenty of great gear that I'm looking to part with. Everything you see pictured...as well as many items not pictured. We are encouraging folks to take a leisurely drive out here to ol' Sterling to have a look around. Studio recording gear...drums...live sound...amps....accessories of all kinds...so on and so forth. If you do want to come out to have a look...be sure to message me first..so we can set up a time...otherwise you may arrive only to find locked doors. Look forward to answering any questions you may have!

I think that is why we love writing and performing so much. I have never played in a band where musical styles have clicked so well. Our band has so many different influences its pretty nuts.
