Threshold Studios 2013 Update: Dave Eggar/Philip Phillips, Edelweiss, Rebecca Hart, Stargroves

Threshold was rather busy in the final months of 2012, and 2013 is already shaping up as a stellar year at the recording studio.

Acclaimed cellist Dave Eggar was back, this time arranging and recording strings for American Idol winner Philip Phillip's debut album "World from the Side of the Moon." The album has already gone gold, selling ~600,000 copies since its late November release. It is always a privilege working with Dave. Congrats!

Perennial Threshold Recording Studios NYC favorites Edelweiss were back to record their newest single, "Withering Heights," with music producer Jeremy Sklarsky. Since they were last here, Edelweiss released their record in Japan and played to enthusiastic crowds back in Pennsylvania and at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn.

Singer, songwriter, and actress Rebecca Hart was in for her first new studio recording since 2006. "Valentine" is a beautiful acoustic song produced by Jeremy Sklarsky and features Dave Eggar on cello. Rebecca has been spending most of her time performing in musicals and other theater productions around the city but was excited to be back in the studio. Stay tuned to hear "Valentine" and hopefully much more to come. 

Finally, Stargroves will be finishing up their debut album early this year. In the mean time, their debut single Westfjords, featuring Abigail Breslin, was nominated for a CMT listener's choice award.

Threshold Sessions with Mark Rivera (Billy Joel/ Ringo Starr) and friends

Rodney Howard, Tony Tino, Greg Mayo, Mark Rivera

I love all of the artists that come through the recording studio and work with our team- the vibe has been great for many years, and we just seem to naturally attract the coolest, most talented guys and gals on the planet.. That said, every now and again, someone pops in and just makes me feel good, like someone really gets it- the reason i built the place-

Recently it was the ginormously talented Mark Rivera (Billy Joel, Ringo Starr ALLSTARRS). Rico is just one of those NY guys that did good, real good, and has the energy and soul to prove it- - and when i talk to him to i can start a sentence midway though with without having to explain myself- know what i mean...?

Love you too Rodney- now that Rod is off the Avril Levine tour its great to have him back on sessions with our artists again!

Producer Mark Hudson and Madame Mayhem swing by for sessions

Incredible session with the great Mark Hudson and artist Madame Mayhem- We couldn't resist asking Mark for a pic since the most popular question when folks heard he was at the studio was - "what color was his hair? Yes, that's the uber talented Dave Eggar in the back:) Threshold Studios Producer Jeremy Sklarsky has since updated his phone to include INSTAGR.AM:)

Patty Smyth and Keith Mack of Scandal @ Threshold Recording Studios

We had the pleasure this month of hosting Patty Smyth (think SCANDAL) and her long time guitarist Keith Mac recording vocals for an upcoming Christmas record. I can think of more than a few of Patty's songs that have made all of our days brighter over the years:)

We Are The Woods create a truly inspiring record with Producer Jeremy Sklarsky at Threshold Recording Studios NYC!

Threshold Recording Studios NYC- Perfect for Singers, Songwriters and Bands!

Our studio time with We Are the Woods is coming to a close shortly. It has been an absolute blast having these awesome artists in the studio. The record we are nearing completion is a solid mix of folky acoustic and rocking electric sounds. The music is a whole lot of fun and there were always plenty of healthy snacks and an assortment of teas on hand. Somehow, while geeking out over Harry Potter, the Hunger Games, and other various middle school literary obsessions, we managed to put together a pretty fantastic record:)

check the Threshold jukebox for audio shortly!
