Wilburland 105 Bank St Newfield, NY 14867

There are studios that are fun to work in, studios that are conducive to the creation process, studios that have great equipment, great facilities.... and then there is Wilburland.  Will not only provided a top notch recording studio, and ran it with an astounding knowledge of his state-of-the-art and vintage equipment, but also quickly became one of the gang.  From rolling with our especially profane sense of humor, to dealing with our individual requests like a diplomat, to providing a comfortable living and performing environment, Will is a cut above the normal studio owner/operator.  This is place you compare all others to, and Will is a man you always remember when thinking back to the experience of creating a great recording.  Will is the man... your coffee rocks!  Thanks Will.
