Remote Recording and Video Coming Soon!

  • Steve can provide drum and percussion tracks to supplement recordings either as an original track or a replacement.

Spoken Road Studios Drum and Percussion Tracking

News — I just acquired a 2012 Ludwig Black Beauty snare drum to add to my stable. It’s 5” x 14” nickel over brass. It has a replacement, P-86 sanre throw off. I recently sold my Tama Mike Portnoy, Melody Master 5” x 12” hammered steel snare drum. So, one metal snare is replacing another.
