I've been performing in the San Diego and Southern California region for the past 12 years and have…read moreworked with a TON of sound reinforcement companies. I'm so glad I discovered Frank and Accurate Soundz a couple years back - I hire him for all the performances I can. As a performer, I've hired Frank for clubs, beach concerts, bars - you name it. As a business owner that provides live music and DJ music for weddings and corporate events, Frank has saved me tons of hours and headaches dialing in the various types of venues we work in from San Diego to Orange County to Palms Springs. He's always reliable, always super friendly, and his equipment sounds super amazing. The coolest thing is that Frank has a true passion for sound and music, and he gets the job done right, every time. Highly recommended for solo acts, DJ's, and bands.

My son just turned 5, so I felt he was old enough to get started with music lessons. I scheduled a…read more30 minute appointment for him with Jess. Her unconventional teaching style kept him captivated the entire piano lesson, and he was excited to go home and practice his new piano skills. We needed to schedule my son's ongoing lessons for week nights, and Jess isn't available outside of weekends, so my son's next appointment was with Rachael Kone. She was exceedingly patient and sweet, but her teaching style was more formal, and it didn't seem to be the right fit for my high-energy child who didn't stay as interested this time around & ended up getting the wiggles halfway through her lesson. So, I called Camille (the business owner, and someone who also has tons of music experience) to ask for assistance getting a piano teacher that would be a good fit for my son during our available times. She said that Anton Maroun would be available during our needed times, and that he is a great teacher for younger students like my son, who might occasionally need the teacher to burst out into a short vocal performance in order to keep them focused on the music. My son's first lesson with Anton will take place this coming week, and I'm excited to see how this works out. Either way, I'm very happy to have found an affordable, local place where the staff is friendly & knowledgeable and there's enough instructors on staff to find the right musical fit for everyone.

I'm working again with Drew on some new music, and I will work with him again and again.

I'm super excited to continue working with Drew, and I am grateful for all I have and will continue to learn along the way.

Drew Lundberg (of Often the Thinker) is a legend. I was lucky to recently start recording my new…read morealbum at 1221 with Drew - I've made 3 albums and have mostly recorded and produced them on my own, but I've gone a different direction with my writing and wanted to work with Drew for this new batch of songs. The experience so far has been truly inspiring. Drew has a gift for communicating when it comes to music - he understands the intangible and it didn't take him much effort to see my vision and know what I was going for. We were able to accomplish things together that I never could without him, and the experience of working together was joyful. Drew is easy-going and fun; he has a really disarming quality that is an invaluable trait for a producer and collaborator generally. When I asked for Drew's help in playing a part on electric guitar (his playing is beautiful), he was more than happy to see what he could come up with, and within minutes he was playing exactly what I hoped might be added to my song. Drew is very open to any ideas and prioritizes staying true to an artist's vision. He is encouraging and creatively nurturing. But above all else Drew is an amazing person. He's kind, fun to be around and the atmosphere at his studio is really lighthearted and beautiful. Drew's setup is amazing, literally a dream come true. The space is really fun to work in and the tools at Drew's and his clients' disposal are state of the art and very carefully, expertly chosen and arranged. I'm a piano player and I love the upright at 1221! I found myself feeling really creative with it. There's a really special organ there, a Juno-106 (and other synths), and some amazing guitars. All recorded through the best outboard (including amps in a booth if your music has guitars) and some lovely microphones. It's magical. I greatly admire Drew's work - he is a brilliant engineer and producer. He pays very meticulous attention to every detail of a mix and has a wonderful sense for subtlety, always finding what will complement each sound. The sounds are so clean and beautiful; Drew's recordings are elegant and graceful. He EQ's and compresses tracks perfectly and has a very tasteful ear for panning and using effects exactly how they ought to be used. He's also great at mastering! If you are a producer looking for someone with a trustworthy second pair of ears to tastefully master your music with some really nice outboard gear, Drew and 1221 are a really excellent option. Speaking to the efficiency of Drew's work and keeping costs effective, my expectations were exceeded. Drew and I have finished the better part of entire songs in one session. My experience at 1221 was glorious and I can honestly say that I found something in my music there that I had never found before. Drew is very talented at bringing that out of people and he provides an environment and atmosphere where it's not only possible, but likely. Thank you so much Drew and the crew at 1221. I'm looking forward to coming back as soon as possible. Much love.
