Located in Tulsa Oklahoma, the newly revived Church Studio is a digital and analog recording studio, audio engineering school, entertainment network, event center, home of the Church Studio Archive, and a music museum that offers historic tours!
The Church Studio played a significant role in American music history. It was built in 1915 as Grace M.E. Church. In 1972, Leon Russell, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer and Grammy-Award winning artist, purchased the old church and turned it into an analog recording studio and home office to Shelter Records. It became the epicenter for what has become known as the Tulsa Sound. Today, it boasts an extraordinary vintage gear and mic collection, and a Neve 8068 console, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The mission of The Church Studio Music Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charity, is to support the understanding, appreciation, and advancement of music. Support our cause here: thechurchstudio.com/foundation/#donate
Nancy is till so amazing gourgous that voice just wondering what happened to her had that cut. Anyways she is such and amazing artist so much talent, loved their tribute to Led Zeppelin cover of stair way to heaven ♥️
It’s funny how that goes…People going to see a band want to hear the stuff they know…People who go to see comedians want to hear new stuff they haven’t heard.
Leon Russell was an excellent musician and performer, but he was also a great guy. Guy i knew played harmonice and sang at his wedding reception. He was humble and kind in my experiences with him
I was born in 75. Grew up through the 80s. I thought we had it good with the music. 70s was something else though. Would’ve loved to have experienced it through the 70s. 80s films and tvs was better though
The strength of his performance and committing to Holly's music by playing and singing the songs himself make the movie the best tribute film ever made.
I fell in love with Leon just recently I was living in Europe for several years i'm guessing when he shone the brightest. I fell in love . Many thanks to Sir Elton John I have lived my life with music and nursing. Leon had hands that were molded by God to be the great artist of centuries. his songs have been sung by many.... Leon's unique style was eternallly wonderful. His eyes saw through my soul especially as he watched some of the artists he worked with. Thank you and all Leon lifts and Sir Elton yes the world needed Leon and I pray he is kept in global memory, you all put Tulsa on the map.. the music was inspiring in every way. I can only guess Leon was not comfortable in the spotlight but his heart served well bringing others along to continue the Tulsa sound. I began music in church.,,, and God lead me the rest of the way. what an amazing man. I just watched one where Leon had a gospel singer picking out a great song Leon visible in the background you'd occasionally see .... the biggest proud smile like a proud dad was following his face.... ahh I thought his eyes were stunning . anyone who refuses to see miracles in each day please meet Leon from his early years to his return with a man who brought me from darkness to light Rlton then opened wide the sun light and Leon appeared. I was only recently reminded even in strangers presence with a phrase I beleive but since introduced to Leon.... we never die" How can we as we were rescued by love its love in our heritage that calls us forward. love brought forth the cry of any newborn any port as well as musician ... the music bring forth celebration band a love 💕 eternal how can that die I and as I pass in Leon to my children and friends yes he lives on loves on whether long dark hair and eyes that can see your soul or the man of silver long locks angelic thy name is Leon. He is and was a good steward of Gods Love as Elton sobbed at dr induction of Leon I cried in joy meeting him. My husband knows i'm in love and he is content in my choice as he was brought into my lucie as a miracle as was Leon. Sending so much love and every blessing your way thank yuu ❤
