Author | Topic: Who to contact for making a demo? |
Uwe Haegg Member From: Hilleroed, Denmark |
![]() If I wanted to cut a two or three song demo in Nashville for my own pleasure, at my own expense, who should I contact? What is the going rate for a studio with a four piece session band? |
Michael Holland Member From: Nashville, Tennessee, USA |
![]() Hi Uwe, Forum member Mike Headrick has a nice studio about an hour outside of Nashville. He'll set you up with a complete package at a good price. Contact him at steelfodder@aol.com. |

![]() Just stay away from the "Big Business" studios. They will only take your hard earned money and leave you hanging. If they don't tie you up in a contract that you will never get out of, you will be lucky !! I've seen many song-writers and artist that has gotton tangled up with the "Big-Suites" and are still paying for it. Some of the above post said it best: Go with Mike Headrige or Bobbe Seymour or one of the smaller studios for demo cuts. While you may or may not get the mega-cut demo or be the next Elvis, at least you won't get hung up and stranded for the next 5-10 years in a contract that keeps you from letting the world know just how much better you are than some of those "New-Country-Acts" that is so P##-poor the public is having to endure.
