ANNOUNCING TRS Live
The magic of live music performances in the sonic comfort of Tank Recording Studio, with a studio audience listening along!
TRS LIVE is an audience attended live recording session. Artists can perform a concert and record a traditional live album, or incorporate the performance for the audience as part of an ongoing album recording session – or anything in between.
TRS LIVE blends together a recording session with a live concert. It is ticketed through Seven Days Tickets, and each ticket includes a copy of the show recording, emailed in the days following the performance. Some artists have offered ticket bundles that include a future album and/or live release from the studio sessions.
With a limited capacity, these intimate performances foster a direct connection between the audience and the artist. Many music fans have never set foot in a recording studio. So to spend some extended time in the studio listening to a high quality recording – in real time – together in the same room with the artist, is an incredible experience. Audience members from our first rounds of performances are gushing with enthusiasm about the experience and we believe all music fans will have a similarly epic experience.
Our first TRS LIVE sessions were with a 20-piece jazz orchestra, The Saturn People’s Sound Collective. Led by composer/trumpetist Brian Boyes, the band consists of 2 percussionists, 4 vocalists, 12 horns, vibraphone, bass, keys and guitar. With forty audience members attending the performances, listening on wireless headphones to the live studio mix, Saturn People’s Sound Collective performed concerts across two that were recorded and ultimately edited and mixed to create a unique “live album”.
Since then we have hosted both private and publicly ticketed events with local singer-songwriter Evan Jennison , Montreal jazz group No Walls-Sans Murs, Michael Chorney’s Freeway Clyde (as part of PLEX Arts Festival) and most recently the LaMP trio – featuring Russ Lawton, Ray Paczkowski and Scott Metzger.
