“Paradise Valley Studios, located just 25 miles NE of Seattle, WA is a unique “getaway space” for audio and video recording, live public performance, songwriting, rehearsal, and other creative activities. Adjacent to the 800-acre Paradise Valley Conservation Area, the studio “live room” features a 28-ft peak ceiling, natural light, massive pine logs, and full PA system with backline drum kit, amps
, and keyboards. The control room is acoustically isolated and equipped with high end recording gear. A Yamaha G3 Grand Piano, popular vintage and modern keyboards, a suite of microphones and preamps, various snares, and tons of hand percussion including African traditional instruments make up an enviable gear ensemble. We are committed to provide an inspiring, comfortable space and a experience that is both comfortable and inspiring. Our space features several amenities such as our fully accessible kitchen, private sleeping quarters, flexible group accommodations, multiple lounge areas, runners (upon request), and more.
