25th Street Recording Studio - Oakland California

Will Weston and his band are a loud consortium of six Bay Area musicians hailing from diverse musical backgrounds. A transplant of Maui, Hawaii, Weston's genre-spanning catalog samples from the shapeshifting, electric lifeblood of the urban experience, rooted in funk, blues, & soul. Now in production of his third full-length album due out in 2017, Weston & co. are exploring the outer banks, striving to capture both the sweaty joy of the live experience itself and high-gloss studio recordings.

25th Street Recording is a world-class music recording facility niched in the heart of downtown Oakland. It features many specialized construction techniques that make it one of the quietest, best sounding studios in the world.

"THE CONTROL ROOM, MONITORING, OUTBOARD GEAR AND MIC SELECTION ARE AMONG THE BEST I'VE EVER ENCOUNTERED. SOME PEOPLE CALL THAT OLD SCHOOL, I JUST CALL IT AMAZING."

— NEIL DORFSMAN (STING, BJÖRK, BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN)

What's in it for you: as a doubleOone member, you will attend a 4 hour recording session in a state of the art studio, and share this unique moment with a band as they record a track, and work together to reach excellence.

You will be in the recording room with the musicians as they play, next to the drummer, facing the bass and guitar players, and surrounded by a keyboardist, horns and singers. You will find that studios are sanctuaries, places where time flows at its own natural pace, and where true inspiration is captured in sound and music.

If you are a musician yourself, we might even have a surprise for you. The recording is followed by a cultural chat and a Q&A session, addressing creativity, emotional labor, art and life choices, communication,  practice, inspiration, achievements and the road to one's true calling, ambition and mastery.

*Our recording sessions standards: you will attend the recording session with a small doubleOone group (only 20-25 spots available/recording), and engage in creating genuine music. Catering and wine will be served.
