Gravity Studios

Of Chicago's Recording Studios, Gravity has distinguished itself as the busiest, best sounding Rock Studio in the midwest. Record Producers and Recording Engineers from the area as well as the best from the coasts have sought out Gravity for it's mix of the best Vintage gear and the latest Protools HD systems. These Producers include owner Doug McBride, staff producer/ engineers Dave Rieley, George Balogi, and Mark Berlin as well as Gravity Alum Manny Sanchez, Russell Prince, Mike Hari, Jay Marino, Sean O'Keefe, Bill Stevenson, and Jim O'Rourke. Focusing on Indie Rock, Pop Punk, Nu Metal, Power Pop, and Alt Country, the list of bands recently recording at the studio include: Filligar, Story of The Year, Secret Machines, Rise Against, Motion City Soundtrack, Racheal Yamagata, The Sounds, The Walkmen, Ben Kweller, Umphrey's McGee, Fall Out Boy, Less Than Jake, Riddlin Kids, Kill Hannah, and Rod Stewart as well as our legendary clients Veruca Salt, Bob Mould and the Smashing Pumpkins. All of the major labels have brought work to the studio seeking the sound quality of our Vintage Neve 8058 and Studer 827 2" analog machine. Recently Dreamworks, Columbia Records, Warner, and Victory Records have booked sizable stretches of time. However, Gravity remains devoted to the development of Chicago's local bands who utilize our new B studio to cut costs and still enjoy our large selection of mic pre's, mics, guitars, and amps.
