GSB was thrilled to take a private tour of arguably the South’s most aesthetic and functionally impressive studio.  Located in downtown Asheville, Echo Mountain Studio is housed in a former Methodist Church and much of that architectural “spirit” remains.  The main studio boasts a large stained glass window and the woods and layout still possess the atmosphere of being in Church.  The list of clients is a litany of who’s who;  Steve Martin, Peter Asher and the Steep Canyon Rangers were there the day before we arrived.  Will Manning, who produced GSB’s first album, was an intern there as well.  GSB hopes to add a recording experience there to our list of bucket list accomplishments!
