Here
are some of the things our customers have written to tell us:
"I thought I would drop you a line to tell you how very pleased we were
with our kids' recording session. Needless to say the girls were so excited
but you and your engineers were so attentive and helpful that the kids immediately
felt at ease...The quality of your magnificent recording equipment far excels
any I had utilized on previous recording sessions in recent years and the
sensitive and capable technicians made our whole afternoon a memorable one...The
end product was every bit as good as our afternoon's session."
-- Dr. Dale Houston, Choir Director,Trinity I.S.D.,Trinity,Texas
"Just a quick note to let you know how much we enjoyed recording at your
cool studio. We all pretty much agreed it's the best recording experience
any of us have ever had."
-- Julie and Randy Turner, Spring, Texas
"That Big Swing Band"
After recording tracks for Llayne Marshall's
"One Down One Left" CD released by Thunder Turtle Records
"To all the guys of Stone Wall Studio, I would like to thank each of
you for the special treatment you gave my sister and me when we were there....I
felt like a star for a day! I also thank you, Travis, for helping us ordinary
people have dreams come true! This was a very special and fun experience!"
-- Brenda Smith, Willis, Texas
"I have been involved in the music business in the East Texas area for
more than 20 years and have witnessed nothing to impact this business like
Travis Kitchens and Stone Wall Studio. Travis not only offers a state of the
art digital facility that rivals those in Dallas, Houston, or even Nashville,
but he also comes up with creative ways to cater to all musical styles from
Christian, Country, Bluegrass to Rock and Roll, and all at affordable pricing."
-- Rayburn Hance, Lufkin, Texas
"When we set up our first recording date the adults in our group were
a little worried about how the kids might do in a studio atmosphere. In addition
to your calm and patience we found the relaxing country location and the attractions
such as the paddle boats and the climbing wall gave the kids a great combination
of work and play that allowed them to do their best without getting bored
with the hard work of recording."
-- Carl & Cathy Wallace, St. Patrick Catholic Church Youth Choir, Lufkin,
Texas
"I am writing to tell you that our recording session in your studio was
a great experience for me and my band, Angelina Grass. The way you took great
pains to make sure everything was right greatly impressed me. The equipment
you have was truly outstanding and I was impressed at the way you made our
recording sound."
-- Sylvia Forsythe, Lufkin, Texas
"I
really enjoyed the time spent at your studio and it was a great learning experience."
-- Cheri Wickwire, Jamul, California
"I am writing this to tell you how much I and my band, Cross Country,
enjoyed recording with you last month. I have worked in numerous studios throughout
Texas and in Canada and I can say that yours is one of the most professionally
run that I have been in. It was truly a pleasure to perform in such a well
equipped and maintained studio. The idyllic location also proved inspirational...[you
have] a total music production facility that will be very much in demand both
locally and through the larger regional and even national music community".
-- Todd Henry, Nacogdoches, Texas
"Awesome."
-- Travis Powers, DIRT, Houston, Texas
"The best place to record...Period! We can't think of any other place
we would want to record. The facility is great, the scenery is great (both
inside and outside), and the product we left with was awesome every time.
We will definately be back!"
-- STRETCHING MADNESS, Livingston, Texas
Here
are some things the newspapers have said:
"The Trinity County town [Groveton] of about 1,200, home to pineywood
forests and pastures of cattle, is also home to a professional-quality recording
studio."
-- Zanto Peabody, "Music Makers"
Lufkin Daily News, July 21, 1996
"There's a flood of new CDs coming out in the next several weeks from
some of North Texas' heaviest hitters, but one of the most impressive new
local discs comes from a young Grand Prairie-via-Nacogdoches band called Spiff.
Daydreams & Sufferings, Spiff's debut for tiny Groveton-based label Stone
Wall, is layer upon layer of acoustic/electric, soft/hard unpredictability,
songs that can enthrall you as easily as they can turn on you."
-- Malcolm Mayhew, Ft. Worth Star Telegram,
Star Time, April 4-10, 1997
"When it comes to high-quality recorded music and live performances,
New York, Hollywood and Nashville probably come to mind long before a small
East Texas town. Groveton has both with its home-grown Stone Wall Records
recording studio and this weekend's music festival."
-- Brad Mayhar, "And the Band Rocked On",
Lufkin Daily News, March 5, 1998
