Information
The studio is spacious and comfortable, with a control room, a live room and a high  ceilinged recreation space at the back that can also serve as a second live room.  In addition the back room has alternative access to the studio for heavy equipment and instruments.
 
We are located in the Hidden Lane, a vibrant community of creative businesses, located in the cosmopolitan west end of Glasgow. The surrounding area is buzzing with excellent eateries, pubs and unusual shops. One of our favourite pubs is the Ben Nevis which we prefer to call “The Office” – if you are lucky we might even treat you to a pint there after a busy session.
 
Those of you who like obscure, weird and wonderful music might like to browse through the vinyl racks at the wonderfully named music shop “Volcanic Tongue”, while the gourmands in the band may find their new favourite restaurant within a minutes walking distance of the studio. Excellent take-out grub is also available. Transport links are excellent, with several main bus routes, the S.E.C.C train station and the M8 motorway in close proximity. Glasgow International Airport is a 15 minute drive away.
 
There is free off-road parking available at the studio, as well as kitchen facilities and free wi-fi for clients.
