Ok, so we've given up the three year long attempt to produce some decent recordings at home and intend to go into a studio and do it properly.

The initial intention was to knock up a decent demo. but, since the studio will cost money plus people keep asking us for cds at our gigs, it seems to make sense to go the whole hog and make an album.

So, does anybody have any recommendations for an appropriate studio which is fairly close to Sheffield and could cope with a band of 6 or more with violins, flutes, guitars, squeezeboxes and lots of voices and produce for us a live sounding mix of some of our songs and tunes?

I've already contacted and am waiting for a reply from Brian Bedford's studio which seems just the ticket given the location and his background but, in case that doesn't work out I'd be delighted to hear your recommendations.

Cheers!
