StudioHouse North on South Dakota Avenue in NE, DC was the location of my first recording experience. There, I met engineers Bob Shaw and Brad Baerwald.
You could see the house from South Dakota Avenue, but to enter you had to know how to access the back way.
Once inside, two very unassuming gentlemen, surrounded by beautiful instruments and (at the time) state of the art equipment, greeted you with a smile.
The experience opened my eyes to the importance of prioritizing, investing, and reinvesting in one’s business.
Every trip there was fun; Bob would have acquired a new “toy”.
He was committed to giving Christian singers and musicians a place to make their music live.
It was fascinating watching the process; how music went from recording to a tangible album; how closely DMV musicians and singers collaborated—and that mikes don’t lie.
RIP, Bob Shaw.
