The Garage, owned by local radio personality Jack McKissock, is 16,000 square feet of kick ass rock. Rehearsal studios, recording studios, showcase rooms, and we even house a magazine. If there has ever been a place to get publicity, this is it. We have everything right here. Jack has been in radio for a combined 35 years. We've been program and promotion directors, music director and done more producing than you can shake a guitar at. We've been trained by the best, and we know what it takes to make it in today's industry. We know inside secrets and what to watch out for. We know how to sell a band, and how to make the band sell records. If, in the off chance, there is something that we aren't experts at, we know someone who is, and we've already bought their plane ticket. We've got an army of rock idols, record reps, industry consultants, recording experts, publicists and directors in our bottomless pit of resources. And you never can tell who you'll see there. Or who will see you. We've been practicing for this our whole lives, and now we're ready to change the industry and give it back to the artists. No suits allowed. Get ready, cause the revolution is about to happen.
Now, about the place: Every recording studio has it's own control room which includes vocal booths. We offer rehersal spaces, fully soundproofed and for rent by the month, or by the day. Each rehersal space is fully accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Your own electronic key and passcode insures the security of your equipment and privacy. We have all kinds of packages to suit exactly what you're looking for, including services such as video and live sound recording, band management, image consulting, promotion, graphic and sound design, sound engineers and producers. We have a showcase room available as a private venue for cd release parties and for record labels to see prospective talent. The showcase room boasts a full stage, with full lighting and full sound and full camera coverage. It also has it's own control room to capture live sound and/or video on cd or dvd. You will absolutely LOVE our artist lounge. Comfortable furniture, comfortable lighting, large flatscreen tv's complete with dvd players and video games. A place that's completely conducive to your creativity. We've got a full kitchen and an area where you can buy extra strings by the package, or by the string, drumsticks, drumheads, batteries, all the little things that you might need but hate to go driving around for. You can even buy or rent instruments and equipment here. If you're looking to have a party, banquet or lecture, we've got the perfect setup for you. We can even provide the catering. You just tell us what you want, we'll handle it. Video and recording services also available for these events. We will be offering lessons in all kinds of instruments, and vocals. And you never can tell when we'll have "special guest teachers". If you have any questions, please feel free to send us a message here on myspace, or email us at TheGarageSouthFlorida@yahoo.com. You can always call us 24/7 at 239-233-2205. We'll be happy to give you any answers or a tour!
