ValveTone Studios

It seems like many of the albums I love best were born during a studio lockout. The musicians had time to be creative and the creativity happened where it could be recorded with the highest level of quality.  

Now-a-days, who can afford a long lock-out?  So, musicians get creative at home and get stressed in the studio. ValveTone Studios breaks that paradigm for the projects that I produce. I can be off the clock, the sound can be rocking and the musicians can be comfortable and creative.

The best gear, great ears…what’s missing?  You!
