More vocals 🎤
We really do get a great sound here at YS, but it’s not just about the microphone, the pre amp or the processing. It all starts with making sure the vocalist is comfortable, happy & well prepared. A cup of tea helps too. ☕️
Get in Touch if you’re interested chatting about your next project! 💛🦈

From the Beginning by Emerson Lake and Palmer

This was the first music video from the 'Yellow Shark Studio Sessions' A series recorded at Yellow Shark Studio of hand-picked and great songs from the last five decades. Each recording is a respectful observation and tribute to the original composition, songwriter, and artist all performed on real instruments from the studio in an analog setting. I've posted this again as a precursor to the next video in the series, which will be released on YouTube next Monday. Please feel free to like the video, and subscribe to our YouTube channel for more wonderful sessions in this exclusive series.

It’s with great sadness we heard today that Steve Harley has died at 73. He was a great singer, songwriter and musician and brilliant to work with, Yellow Shark Studios were lucky enough to be involved in recording Steve’s last album. May he rest in peace.

Always important to talk through parts during tracking! We love crafting every part of the sound to fit the song best, whether that’s changing out snare drums, trying different guitars or sometimes not playing at all during a section! We’ve got some availability during March and can do some great rates, get in touch to find out more! 💛🦈

The Callbirds were delighted to announce today the release of their first single: Small Talk. You can listen to the song via the link in our bio, or on your favourite streaming service!

"It's a song that was born out of a challenge somebody set me to write a song using only three chords... That's not what I had by the time I had finished it but I like the result! It's really a love letter to the early pioneers of Rock and Roll, which comes across in the lyrics"

- Isaac

"Isaac and I have been playing it live for a long time, we would jam and have fun with the arrangement to get it where it is today. It's great to finally get it down on record!"

- Armin

"There was a lot of room for me to experiment during the instrumental sections of this song, there's so many grooves to get into and so many places to go with my playing! It doesn't have the confines of any genre really, is it Jazz? Rock? Funk? Who's to say?"

- Will

Small Talk was recorded at Yellow Shark Recording Studio. It was produced by Tom Nichols and engineered by Laurence Nelson. Written by Isaac Heeks and performed by The Callbirds and guest musician Joe Allen on saxophone.

Cameron is a fantastic vocalist who we’ve been lucky enough to work with a couple of times in the past. Joining him were Ali & Juliet who bring an incredible wealth of experience and talent, such an inspiring and incredible session to have worked on. 💛🦈
