2008 was the year where "The Smokehouse" finally lost its reputation of the best kept secret in town.
Multiple visits from The Kooks as well as Klaxons (who moved in for 6 months) left little time for anything else. However, we did manage squeeze in Primal Scream, The Magistrates and a whole album from Cream side kick Pete Brown and his writing Partner Phil Ryan (Ex Mann Band).
We also did a number of media sessions with music by Daniel Pemberton for the christmas special "Clash of the Santas", featuring a 10 piece Lapland gypsy Santa band playing live. 2009 has started with Visits from Joby Talbot, as well as The Malchicks, which featured a guest appearance from Dick Taylor of the Pretty Things. On the gear front the mic stock has almost doubled and we have gained access to the Cote Basque vintage instrument stock. See the new lists for more details.
Coming late April 2009
The return to the road of the The Ronnie Lane Mobile Studio The LMS was founded in 1972, when Ronnie Lane (The Small Faces and The Faces) imported a 1968 Airstream Trailer from the USA. From the very first year of operation the LMS was responsible for some of the most successful and influential recordings in rock music's history. More information soon.
