Welcome to Rusty’s.
Rusty’s is a fully functioning analog/digital recording studio in Salem MA.
Formally a garage to the beloved truck, “Rusty” (who stays on display outside).
This 400sqft box of musical solitude is perfect for mixing sessions, vocal sessions, guitar/drum tracking and full band multitracking.
I’ve spent a good deal of my musical career writing jingles, mixing/producing bands/artists, performing live.
Not until recently, I’ve had the luxury of being able to have a dedicated space to turn knobs and make noise.
The gear collection is growing weekly. So if you are looking/need something for your next creative endeavor,
please let me know.
