Our studio offers
a World Class input chain (microphones, mic preamp) coupled with the finest
grand piano, a wonderful live sounding room, and high quality digital recording
capabilities. We have made recordings of vocals, piano, flugle horn,
guitar, violin, flute, and trumpet that meet or exceed the quality of large studio facilities that cost
hundreds of dollars per hour. We excel at multi-track recording of small groups or individuals.
We do this in the relaxed environment of our home at much lower cost than a
traditional studio.

What
We Do
If you record here at Sweet Nancy's Studio, you will not
be a "customer" or "client", you will be a
friend. We will do whatever it takes to produce your
music for you, at whatever cost works with your budget.
Bring your
own instruments, use prerecorded accompaniment tracks, or have Nancy
arrange and record a custom accompaniment track for you.
Listen to a
2 minute sample of one she prepared for the talented local vocalist,
Kathy Young: The
Lord's Prayer
In
addition to custom backing tracks for your music, Nancy has written
many songs for other occasions and purposes. Find out more
about her songwriting skills here.
Our Friends

Joanne
Swift
Last year (Aug
'05), I was a judge at the "Crisfield Idol" contest
at Crisfield, MD. This young girl (10 yrs old at the time),
knocked my socks off! I gave her mom my card and encouraged
her to have a demo made. A year later, Joanne showed up at
Sweet Nancy's studio and at 11 yrs old, lay down some sweet
tracks. Check out her rendition of "Red
Neck Woman"

| Nancy and our
dear friend, Barry Johnson work on "Seedtime
and Harvest" a song Nancy wrote for a Chalk-Talk by Elva
Hurst. Barry does the guitars and the vocals on this
song. Not bad for doing it all in one night, the first time he
heard it! One take wonder, indeed! |

Dan
Gottwalt and Marc Horst record guitar for some songs that Dan wrote
for his girlfriend. Listen to a couple small samples and
imagine that Dan made one young lady very happy with his words and
his music.
