tate music group...brand new studios

We got this exciting news at the end of the week and I couldn't be more stoked - Tate Music Group is building a new, state of the art studio. I was able to tour the facilities which should be up and running in the next few weeks.

It is an incredible space. 4,000+ square feet - green room with full view of band studio (for family, friends, etc), complete artist studio with vocal booths, extra large equipment storage space, and (one of the best features) a completely furnished artist apartment to stay in while recording. Awesome, right?! All under one roof and right around the corner from the rest of the Tate Music Group campus.

This is incredible for TMG and our artists! We are finishing up the interior design work but I'll post pics as soon as I can. Come check them out...and let's make some music!

tate music group...good to hear

We got this correspondence from an artist that recently came in to record with his band. I thought I would share it with you readers and let you see his thoughts and experience. It was an exciting note to get for us...enjoy:

Dr. Tate. On the week of May 4th my band was at your music studio to record our first CD. Upon arrival I met with Jameson Reynolds who introduced me to all of the staff and producers. Our producer was Jeff Lee who right away got us started tracking. We got drums and bass done on the first day because Jeff did a lot of pre-planning before we got there. On the second day we did guitars. Jeff was kind enough to do several tracks for us and had some ideas we had not thought of. By the third day we were doing vocals and loop tracks to enhance the CD. Our lead singer has used studios in OKC that have taken weeks to do just drums and at a cost ten times more than our TMG contract. Jeff went over and above for my band and in 4 days of tracking we have a CD that is air-play ready for any radio station. I also found out that your producers have played on CD's for some big names around the country but they are so humble you would never know. Next is our photo shoot and cover design. I cant wait to meet the rest of your staff. If I ever get the opportunity to come back to TMG to record I will jump on it...

Thanks again Dr. Tate for giving local musicians like myself a chance to shine an be recognized.

Sincerely
Larry

tate music group...win an iPad

Pretty cool, right?! In May, Tate Music Group is giving away an iPad to one lucky 'tweeter' (my favorite way of describing one who tweets). All you have to do is follow us on Twitter and retweet what we put on @TMGOfficial. Pretty simple, really. And for that, you get entered for a chance to win an iPad.

We'll be doing more of these giveaways because we want to continue to spread the word about Tate Music Group, our incredible artists, and the great things we can do together. But for now, just make sure and follow us on twitter - you can find out more information about this here.

Good luck...and peace to all my 'tweeties' (not my favorite...). - @allenf
