Bob Bradshaw – Live in Boston

February 24, 2025 by Rafi

A few months ago Bob Bradshaw brought his band of killer players to Studio A, alongside a very talented video crew, and proceeded to record a live album in a single day!

Mike, John, Steven, Andrew, Peat, Bob, James, Rafi, Andy, Frank, Mark.

The band, which plays regularly with Bradshaw in haunts as near as the Lizard Lounge and as far as Tipperary, Ireland, is a finely tuned band. Featuring (the Amazing) Mike Connors on drums, Andrew Stern on guitar, John Sheeran on bass, and special guests James Rohr on piano and Andy Santospago on pedal steel and guitar, this crew pulled no punches during an incredibly long day. They recorded upward of 12 songs! The video crew, helmed by Mark Steele captured multiple cameras with fantastic lighting, and the resulting album will be released soon – the videos have been trickling out in anticipation of this release. Rafi Sofer recorded the band, and Dave Westner mixed it (not at Q:).

Check out this video of the song Albuquerque.

Will Dailey Tracks a New Album, Live in Studio A

March 20, 2023 by Rafi

Will brought in a gang of ace musicians to help flesh out his new album. They learned the songs and recorded them all together in the room – just how we imagined the space being utilized. Not only did these guys track all their parts live, they ALSO live-streamed the sessions a couple of times a day, giving fans a chance to hang in the room as tape rolled!

Alongside his long time collaborator and all around musician extraordinaire Dave Brophy, Will brought James Rohr, Ken Clark, Jeremey Moses Curtis, Andrew Stern, Cody Nilsen, Joe McMahon, Ed V, and of course Dave’s studio assistant, Coco the Chill. Our very own James Bridges engineered, and Rafi Sofer took some pictures and set up the live streams. Videographer Chris DeSanty was also taping the sessions for a future video documentary on the production of the album.

Will was kind enough to commit to working in the space before we were done – in fact hosting him allowed us to learn A LOT about the room and some of the issues we still have to sort through, before we open our doors to the general public on APRIL 15!

Andrea Gillis – Hold Your Maker/Chopping the Tree

July 30, 2015 by Rafi

Hey, look! It’s two brand new tunes from Andrea Gillis! With husband Marc Pinansky on drums, James Rohr on nutty keys, Mike Castellana on guitars, Ed V bassing and producing, and Pat “Denzel” Dicenso engineering, these two tracks showcase two sides of Gillis you’ve probably heard around town for the last 15 years.

Telescope – Air Traffic Controller

October 5, 2014 by Rafi

Telescope is Andrew Stern’s Telecaster centric instrumental band. Recorded live in Studio A in two separate sessions, these compositions cover a range of styles, but they all come back to the Tele. With James Rohr, Greg Loughman, and Mike Connors. Recorded and mixed by Rafi Sofer, and mastered by our neighbor Mike Quinn at the Moontower.

Old Soldiers – Soon is a Long, Long Time

August 22, 2014 by Rafi

These 10 songs from Andrew Stern’s Old Soldiers are full of hooky guitars and stories of late night romance… Old Soldier feature James Rohr on keys, Greg Loughman on left handed bass, and Jared Seabrook on drums.

Andrew Stern has multiple bands, and this one’s a vehicle for songs that inhabit the rock zone (think Stones/Waits/The Band). While working on this batch of songs Andrew recorded two other full length albums of instrumental compositions. This is the only project to date that features his voice!
