Flossie Malavialle Live!

This album was recorded by Heathcote Studio Live on June 3rd, 2018.

Flossie Malavialle is a French born professional artist who was based in the North East of England from 2002 to 2019. Recording Flossie was an absolute pleasure. Being a live album much of the hard work is done in the mixing – but it was simple to do – she really is that good!

Yonderland Debut CD – Midnight Train

Midnight Train was recorded here at Heathcote Studio and released in October 2023.

Coventry based duo Paul Monks and Jane Moss make up the duo Yonderland, they are both singer songwriters and it was a pleasure to help them produce their debut CD. Since recording Midnight train they have returned to the studio and recorded their Christmas single.

Midnight Train is available on Bandcamp here

The Time Travellers

The Time Travellers came all the way from Anglesea in North Wales to record their debut album. Luckily both of them spoke perfect English because Bill’s Welsh language skills are very limited.

Chris and Shona were great fun to record, consuming HUGE amounts of red wine before the album was completed! By the time they got to recording the last track Bill was in a virtual alcoholic coma but both Chris and Shona carried on regardless. In all honesty none of us can remember much about the recording but the album.
