Blackbird Studio

Easily one of the best studios in Music City.. Blackbird is the brainchild of John McBride, who’s not only a great guy but also happens to be a bit of a genius.. This studio has one of the most impressive selections of gear in town and they take every aspect of music production very seriously.. Their staff has always been super professional and attentive for all of our sessions.. They’re not cheap, but they’re priced similarly to any other high end recording studios.. And you get what you pay for so you can expect everything to be done with the highest level of quality in mind.. From the design of their live rooms and booths, to the privacy of their entrance and exits, Blackbird Studio has considered every detail..

Amazing! It's legendary. What more need I say?

One of the best studios in the world. It was an honor to make music there.

Pretty fantastic place, visit was a walkthrough introduction for the school there, staff was amazing and friendly, courteous and very informative, the place has the vibe of a high end recording studio (which it is) with that middle TN country warm welcoming feel, state of the art equipment and a very expansive collection of vintage gear for all recording needs.....overall just a mind blowing welcoming visit, truly a place with the "feel" of champagne/diamonds and the southern charm of a cool summer eve on the porch with ice tea and friends

Best recording session so far! Went there in 2012 and the sound quality you get from Blackbird is top notch. If you can't capture a great sound there then probably you don't know what you're doing. Love their API Legacy Plus console so much. They have the best microphone collection in the US. Unbeatable! Can't wait to go back to that beautiful facility.

You certainly don't need my endorsement, but what a cool place. Top notch studio that has such a personal home feel. Great job.

Crazy nice place. They have anything and everything that a performer would need to complete a project. The employees are extremely nice and down to earth. It was refreshing to meet them.

Booked a week in 2019 and couldn’t be happier. Rolff helped us set up the logistics and Jeremy engineered, consummate pros both. Incredible gear, staff, location. 🤙

State-of-the-art facility with lots of space in a convenient location. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Good Creature Comforts and pretty good parking too!

Historic relic! We recorded classics in here, great service, all the time.

Got me the mic I wanted same day. Make sure you go to the right door, and ask for detailed directions to the rental area before you get there.

It is simply one of the biggest studios in the world! Lots of great multi grammy award musicians recorded there! It's historic!

Awesome facility! Nice people and clean restrooms. Great sound, of course.

Still one of the best places to record. Not because of the amazing gear, but because the atmosphere, and the employees are awesome here!

I went for speaking session and it was great. Hope to do it again someday

What a great time for our whole group. It was perfect! Vance is the best!

There’s no better studio in Nashville, period. If you want to record you’re not gonna beat Blackbird. It’s worth the cost of entry and then some.

What an amazing board, microphone, and studio ! To stand where the greats have stood and sing through the legendary gear ❤🎶🎤

John McBride’s Blackbird Studio in Nashville, TN is easily one of the most amazing places that you will come across in this world of music, recording and producing.
