How does an artist attend a recording session?
After submitting their songs, if the artist expresses interest in any of them, we coordinate with the artist to schedule a 12-hour recording block at Bay Eight Studio. The studio time is free, allowing artists to record their selected songs professionally.
Will the writers of the songs be in attendance when the artist books their studio session?
Yes, the selected songwriters will be present at the session. However, we only invite the writers of the songs that the artist has chosen to record. This approach ensures a more collaborative environment, keeping the session focused and productive without overcrowding the studio.
How long do I have to book the artist session?
You have as much time as you need. Once you decide on a song from the ones we’ve sent and your artist wants to record it, we will accommodate your scheduling preferences. With three studios available, booking a session is never a problem, ensuring flexibility in your planning process.
How long are the artist's sessions booked?
We typically book sessions in 12-hour blocks. We can arrange multiple days to accommodate the artist’s recording needs if more time is required. This flexibility ensures that artists have ample time to perfect their recordings.
