Studio

Rogue Elephant Studios was built by musician Pat O’Connell to serve as an avenue for his creative output. As the studio grew from its modest beginnings it also began recording other artists and outside projects as a means of sustaining itself and advancing its tech capability. The studio is located in Western New York and has produced Pat’s Albums as well as various rock, jazz, singer-songwriter, poetry, voice over talent and commercial projects. The studio prides itself not only as a recording facility with various platforms ( analogue and digital ) but merged with that is also access to a unique instrument collection that encompasses standard instruments (guitars, bass, keys drums), instruments from around the globe (Asia, Africa, Europe, South America), a vintage keyboard collection (Moog, Arp, Roland,), and an extensive percussion collection. This unique creative atmosphere allows the artists to explore possible new directions and inspirations in their music or recording projects. Feel free to contact us today regarding your project today. Whether you want to record your band, record a song (or album) you have written, have music written to your poetry or song lyrics, create a commercial or bring in existing tracks (on your platform or ours) for overdubs with instruments you don’t have access to on a regular basis we have done all this and more. You can contact the studio through the information on the tool bar above.
