NYC Recording Studio Tour?
August 13, 2013 9:53 AM Subscribe
I want to take my friend on a tour of a recording studio in the NYC area to take a friend on for his birthday. Google has come up surprisingly short. I'd prefer a recording studio that has come kind of historical importance, though I know that most of the legendary studios in NYC have moved or closed. If a historically significant studio isn't a possibility, I was hoping to find one that has recorded interesting artists in the alt/indie rock, power pop, or soul genres.
I have reached out to one newer studio of artists he's into but in case they don't do tours, I wanted to find other options. Plus, more than one studio tour would be just fine as well. Thanks for any tips!

Electric Lady doesn't do tours.
It's been my experience that working studios are not excited about doing tours for people without some kind of prior personal connection.
You might get a little more traction if you booked an hour of studio time but explained to them that instead of a session you wanted a tour.
