Hey everyone!
Just a heads-up – from Monday 14th October, our rehearsal rates will be changing to £10 per hour for bands and £8.50 per hour for solo sessions.

Unfortunately, with rising costs to keep the studio running, we’ve had to make this small adjustment. We hope you understand and appreciate your continued support! 🤘🎶

Thanks so much, and we can’t wait to see you in the studio! 🎶
