Chicadawg Studio
Chicadawg Studio is a one-band-at a time rehearsal and recording studio in a unique and beautiful environment. Our local musicians will enjoy amenities, such as not being rushed out the door for the next band. You will be working with state-of-the-art equipment and with patient attention for recording projects. If equipment you want isn’t in our inventory, we will make sure we access it for your project. All of our clients can enjoy our private swimming pool for breaks. For out-of-town clients, we have three bedrooms each with a queen size bed. Our elite clientele will appreciate the ability to rehearse before a concert and even work on an on-going recording project while “on the road”. If you are “On The Road” and just want a break from the tour bus and hotels, we welcome you.
All rates are negotiable.
