I play in a rock band that wanted to record our first album. I knew Jack mutually through the local music scene and was made aware of his studio, and it seemed like a great place to record some tracks. He was super communicative, flexible when we wanted to change locations to get drums, and worked with our schedules super well. He also was fantastic at getting rid of any unwanted “blips” and issues caused by punching in tracks, which came in handy. The audio quality and quality of the equipment in general was great. I would absolutely recommend working with Crab Shack Music.

Jack creates a vibe in the studio that makes you feel totally comfortable, valued, and confident. He's quick and has a musician's intuition many engineers lack. He's the man and makes some dope sounds!
