We have opened our community-based recording studio in Brooklyn. For real.
Rubber Tracks serves as a catalyst for originality by giving new and emerging bands the opportunity to record their songs in a high-quality studio setting. Musicians of all genres are able to apply in advance for a time to use the studio – for free. As in no cost.
Rubber Tracks also gives bands the means to expose their music to a much larger audience through content captured while recording, including songs and behind-the-scenes video. Artists have the option to utilize Converse.com and our social media channels to promote their content, potentially reaching millions.
If you’re ready, then register to hear about when we’ll be accepting applications for studio time.
