A few weekends ago my band, Parachute Stage, recorded our first demo. We recorded at In the Woods Recording Studio in Wallingford, CT and had a great experience. When we arrived at the house, which is literally in the woods, I learned that I had a doppelganger. His name was Gregg and coincidently one of the owners of the studio. He made us feel very welcome and gave us a tour of the house and studio.
The house is beautiful and the studio is set up very well. There is a large room with a cool paint job and within it a smaller isolation booth for vocals and whatnots. Down the hall is the control booth and mixing board.
Gregg was very helpful and professional about the recording process. He took his time making sure we were set up properly and everyone was comfortable. After a few takes he became very much invested in our music and at time expected even more from us than we expected from ourselves. This was great because it gave us all confidence that we had a quality product to offer.
The recording went really well and we laid the music to four tracks in just about 2 hours. Green Tea was finished in 1 take and Protest Song in only 2. After that it was just listening to Dee add in the lead vocals which as you can hear came out great!
We highly recommend In the Woods Recording to any band who wants a quality recording in a very relaxed atmosphere. We will be back in the future for a full length album, but for now check out our demo at myspace.com/coldseasonstudio
