“The goal of this concert is to protect the future of the studio for generations of artists to continue to enjoy a creative space that was crafted by one of the most deeply adored and respected musicians,” Chief House Engineer Greg Cortez says.

“People should be able to use the real hardware and experience the studio process while it still exists in this form,” Joel Graves, co-caretaker of New Monkey Studio, adds.

Studio manager Robert Cappadona says, “This night is not only a celebration of Elliott’s music but also a critical step towards preserving a sonic sanctuary that has become a historical landmark in the music community.”
