First ever in-studio concert experience

Forge Recording opens its doors for a new kind of concert

A new kind of concert.

For the first time, Forge Recording will be hosting a live in-studio concert experience. On Friday, September 26th, attendees will sit-in on a real session. Not only that, but audience members seated in the studio (all wearing headphones) can interactively mix their own version of the show. Crank up the guitar, lighten the drums, or revel in the organ at will.

The concert features Steve Giordano’s Organic Trio with Dave Posmontier playing our Hammond Organ and Dan Monaghan on drums. They’ll be building on the Philadelphia jazz tradition of guitar and organ, playing swinging standards and originals.

Everyone in attendance will also receive a digital download of the show.

What: Steve Giordano’s Organic Trio performs for a small, intimate studio audience

When: Friday, September 26th at 7:30pm

Where: Forge Recording, 100 Mill Road, Oreland, PA 19075

Big Names, Big Jams

Another episode of Studio Jams was recently filmed at Forge Recording. Big names came together to put a Jazz feel on popular classics. The new episodes are slowly being released on YouTube. See what happens when you put big artists like Rocky Bryant, Keith Horne, Dean Brown, Eldar Djangirov, Tom Schuman, Elan Trotman, Kareem Thompson, Jason Long, James “Biscuit” Rouse, Bakithi Kumalo, Robbi Kumalo, Henrik Engqvist, and Gil Parris in the same room together to make music history.

“Studio Jams is a creative, up-close and inside look at the art of making music. Each episode features a diverse group of accomplished jazz, rock and blues musicians, gathered together in a recording studio for the sole purpose of having fun and creating fresh, new music. Many of them are meeting for the first time ever. Episodes are shot in a number of different studios around the world. Viewers see what goes into making music, how the musicians communicate with each other, what goes into creating an arrangement, the building of a song, etc. You watch them rehearse and then perform. It is a unique, interesting and fresh approach to presenting music to the public.”

Forge Recording Showcase

On April 19, 2014 Forge Recording held a showcase at Ardmore Music Hall, with local up and coming Philadelphia Rock bands who have recorded their albums with Ron DiSilvestro at Forge.  The concept of showcasing these top tiered musicians was to introduce music lovers to a new generation of talent in the area.  Performances by Modern Colour, Solus Rex, Bong Hits for Jesus, The Great SOCIO, and headlining the night, Kid Felix. These bands have become part of the Forge family and it is important to share that talent with the fans. Recording music is an art form and one that Ron DiSilvestro knows how to do well. The next showcase will be held at The Grape Room on May 16th starting at 8pm.

Impressed with the Studio

“I recently recorded an EP at Forge, and I’m really happy with how it turned out. Ron is awesome to work with and is a talented producer/kick-ass drummer. I was impressed with the studio and equipment (I loved their grand piano and rhodes) and even got CDs made. I will definitely be going back.”- Janine Toner

The temperature is rising… or should we say,  Mercury Rising with this Rock Trio based out of Philadelphia, PA.  They recently broke  the top 20 on Reverb Nation.  Recent reviews of the guys compare them to known artists: “The White Stripes brought the blues into mainstream with their deconstructed stylings, The Black Keys continue this with their exceptional releases. Modern Colour keeps it simple and a little dirty (in a good way).”- Frank Friel- 100 Greatest Guitarist Page
