WHY PEOPLE LOVE LANA BANANA STUDIOS

The PERFECT place for anyone to work with complete professionals for outstanding results.
After going to many other studios to record tracks and being disappointed by the service and end product, working with Lana Banana to create something I am proud of has been a breath of fresh air.
They work with you and give their experienced advice to make the journey so easy and enjoyable. Nothing is too much of a problem and their final products are magic. From the bottom of my heart, these guys have made a massive difference to me and my confidence - I have no doubt in recommending them to anyone and using them for everything I do in the future. I will be booking sessions with them very shortly!

As a session vocalist and singer songwriter I have been into quite a few studios, but very few compare to Lana Banana Studios.
I was at Lana Banana this morning for the first time to record vocals for a local songwriter, and I was really impressed with the quality of their studio; The vocal booth and vocal mic were both excellent as was the rest of the equipment. The atmosphere had a great vibe, relaxed but very professional, and it was a pleasure to record there.
I will definitely be back again very soon to record some of my own material.

I've recently had a session at the Lana Banana Studios and I was working on my voice reel with Henry.
Straight away he was friendly, accommodating and told me to make myself at home. What we covered in the session was fantastic and I am so, so pleased with the final product. I had lots of ideas in my head as to how I wanted it to sound, changes that I wanted to make and ideas regarding the transitions between the songs and Henry worked his magic and made it all come to life.
It was a great feeling hearing it all come together and I was truly impressed with what Henry could do. He gave valuable feedback on what could be done to make it better and I really appreciate all of his hard work.
My voice reel sounds so professional, the transitions are so smooth and effective and I am really pleased that I chose Lana Banana Studios to put together my professional voice reel. All of that for a great rate too. Thank you so much!

Such an amazing experience at Lana Banana today - So professional but at the same time super friendly and easy to work with.
They made me feel very relaxed and more confident about what I was recording. Also enjoyed watching them mix the tracks with me and were great with suggestions but also always asked for my opinions and input.
Everything ran smoothly and within just three hours I walked out with five tracks ready to be burned to CD - and didn't at all feel that I had been rushed.
Overall a great experience; Would definitely recommend! I hope to come back again in the future.

I can honestly say this was one of my best experiences ever!
Not only did I get to hear my daughter Josephine's amazing voice, I also learnt a lot about recording.
From start to finish Henry and Dave were fantastic. As a novice parent trying to keep a low profile and not cramp my daughters style, I was made to feel very welcome and very much a part of the process, so much so it was hard to leave.
Thank you so much to you both, the songs are spectacular!!

We can not rate highly enough. Such lovely, knowledgeable people that made the experience of going into a recording studio a very easy one, even with kids!
Would definitely recommend and will be back at some stage to do some more recording. Thank you Henry and Dave. What a pleasure.

Always a pleasure working with Dave and Henry. The first time I went to the studio I was made to feel welcome and comfortable which is so important when dealing with Artists. I´ve been back many times since, and still the same warm welcome.
Good mic selection, vocal booth has great acoustic treatment, Pro Tools Ultimate, spacious and good sounding control room, talented, professional team and most importantly plenty of tea going round!

Had a wonderful day recording a 3-track EP with Lana Banana.
Facilities are very good, Henry (our engineer for the day) was the right balance of hands-off and 'You can do better!!' whenever we hit a sticky patch.
Overall very productive and welcoming environment.
— Leo Snook
(Chasing Shadows, band)
Nice layout, very helpful and professional!
Very different from the studios I have been to before.
The recording booth had plenty of natural light coming through as opposed to the 'box room' look.
Henry the engineer knew exactly what we needed!

Perfect little place to go do some recording, nice chilled-out vibe but with all the tech you'd need to get something recorded to a really high standard. Really inexpensive too, when compared with other studios in the area. Would definitely recommend. Thanks to Henry for sorting it out!

Henry and Dave are fantastic at what they do.
I came here to record some demo drum tracks and the sound they produced was amazing; I didn't know my kit could sound like that. It was perfect.
Lana Banana are hands down the best place to go for a relaxed yet thorough music session.
I thoroughly recommend Lana Banana to any musician.
