Nola Recording Studios

It is with a very heavy heart we have to say goodbye to Jim Czak. He passed unexpectedly today. Jim was many things to many people; musician, friend, engineer, confidant, mentor, but, above all, he was truly one of a kind. The world will not be the same without him. We will post details of a memorial on this page as they become available.

Last Song to be recorded: 'What kind of fool am I' (aptly titled!)

We've come to the end of an era. After 75 years, Nola Recording Studios will no longer inhabit the penthouse of 111 West 57th Street, as of February 1st, due to the sale of the building and the impending construction of a 1,300 ft. tower attached to the Steinway Building. There will be more details to come, but we will continue to operate (both on existing projects and new recordings) out of another studio in Manhattan. We can be reached at the same phone number (212) 586-00...40, and the Hotmail address' for all 3 of us will be active (jimczaknola@__, Johnpostnola@__, billmossnola@__) along with the Gmail address nolarecordingnyc@. As we turn to the next chapter, we want to say thank you to the (literally) thousands of musicians, artists and producers that have come into our 'living room' and created wonderful music and, more important, lasting friendships. As iconic as the physical walls are, the legacy of this studio will always be the people. The stories, the one liners, the handshakes, the hugs; relationships have been the lifeblood of this business and will continue no mater what 4 walls surround it. "Take Two......"

aaaaaand... we're back. About as close to "normal" as we ever were.

Nola will be closed until Monday, see the 80 ton reason above.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Rachel Domber and rest of the Arbors family. Mat will be missed by all of us.

Merry Christmas to all from the Nola Gang!

For anyone interested, we are still (after the earthquake), located on the 17th Floor....
