Broad Street Studios on SoundBetter

I have been working with original bands to make great recordings for more than 25 . The staple that holds your compositions together during recording is my ability to provide production solutions to your ultimate musical expression. I am committed to provide the best outcome for your music and investment.

When the artist's new song is born, it creates the magic between the listener and musician.
This new found emotion is what I capture for clients every time. Broad Street studios is the
perfect choice if you’re an artist or band looking for a studio with a great sound to record,
master or mix your original material. If you need real acoustic drum tracks, bass or guitar tracks
or some fills with keyboards i can provide that as well. Review the sample tracks to get a better
idea of work that i have done over the years.
