Blackstar Studio's mission has always been about the musician. In the more than 15 years we have been in operation, countless bands, singers, songwriters, and those needing recording services have come through our door. At first most of the activity was providing bands a decent place to rehearse, then the recording part began to grow, and now Blackstar Studio has evolved into a very capable recording facility. Originally conceived of as a studio that would bridge the large gap between the many "home studios" and the numerous commercial operations, Blackstar has more than achieved that goal. We strive to not only give our clients a product that they can be proud of, but an opportunity to work on their craft.

Nothing is more exciting than seeing someone bring in their project, go through the recording process, and finish with something that exceeds their expectations as well as finding that they have taken valuable steps forward in their creative journey! Of course we have gained valuable experience with them.
