Location: Back-alley Abbotsford. 3 minutes from Collingwood or North Richmond stations and Victoria Street shops. We’re a good central meeting point for bands with members from all over as access is a winner off the Eastern and South Eastern Freeways as well as Punt Road and Hoddle Streets. We’re in an old industrial part of Abbotsford so parking’s good too.
About the studio: A few months ago we decided to build a rehearsal studio in an old warehouse we found in Abbotsford. The place looks pretty amazing if we do say so. Come and have a look for yourself!
Hours of operation: Midday to midnight every day.
Gear available: We’ve got 3 studio types, small, medium and silly big. All have floor mounted foldbacks as well as JBL PRX wall monitors, vocal compression and Allen & Heath desks. The sound is as good as it gets. Crucially the rooms aren’t totally dead sounding either so you won’t have to run your gear (or ours) at a gazillion to hear yourself, although you’re more than welcome to of course. Studio 1, is our silly big room and can fit an elephant in it and has it’s own direct access off the lane for bands with lots of gear… or large animals.
Gear available to hire: We hire amps, bass rigs and drums as well as keeping stock piles of all the stuff you left at your last gig like keyboard stands, kettle chords, strings, picks cables, straps etc.
Extras: All the usual stuff, tea coffee, drinks (not licensed) as well as Richmond’s finest cuisine, which is only a 3 minute walk away. There’s plenty of places to relax too, whether it be the lounge, bar or heated outdoor area.
