Jacketweather is a recording studio and home to an eclectic sampling of Texas Producers and Artists. Located just outside the Austin city limits, the current JW studio is the third operated by David Dreesen and friends in the Austin area. The tracking room is a 32x28 acoustically ‘tamed’ space with hardwood floors, a carpeted amplifier buffering border and an attached 10x6 isolation booth with cork floors. The 18x14 Control Room has a clear view of the entire cutting room floor as well as the Isolation Booth. In addition, the facility offers a 18x11 writing and rehearsal room and a cozy 22x18 demo B studio with an attached 8x6 isolation booth.

Although it’s difficult to pinpoint exactly what it is that connects the bands and artists who call the studio home, it surely transcends genre or style. It seems Jacketweather bands are all players who appreciate slower paced sessions, gear with character, an honest sounding large room and the experimental guerilla-recording technique of the house engineers. Many are drawn back to the familiarity and comfort of the facility for all their sessions, and we’re happy to call our clients a fiercely loyal family…even if they are just a little bit fucking crazy.
Jacketweather facility use fees are $100 per day plus production fees. Resident Rehearsal Incubation is 300/month for Green Room and 400/month for Blue room plus negotiated production fees for access to Red Rooms. Email for info.
