Why Record in Memphis?

We're the epicenter of musical innovation.

Look anywhere you want in the history of American music and you'll find Memphis. We're the birthplace of the blues and rock'n'roll, we invented soul and we've been changing the hip hop game for more than 30 years.

Memphis is a studio city.

Whatever your sound, whatever your set up, we've got you covered – from the expansive and legendary Studio A at Ardent to that single special tracking room at Sun, you'll find what you need in Memphis.

Our historic hit-making studios are still making hits.

Memphis has long been a center for music recording – and our historic studios like Sam Phillips and Royal are still cutting hits for artists like Margo Price and Bruno Mars.

There's something in the water here.

That's what we hear from the artists who travel to Memphis from across the country and around the world each year to record albums here – why don't you come experience it for yourself?
