Arcade Fire's church studio sold to Emery Street Records
Arcade Fire's church studio, located in Farnham, Quebec, has been sold to Montreal-based Emery Street Records, home to Seb Black and Eddie Paul.
Newly renovated - including repairing the roof, masonry, doors, windows, carpets - the studio will now be known as Grand Lodge No. 24, and Emery Street's president, said:
"This mystical place provides a unique venue with peerless sound to record the Emery Street Records musical output, as well as other high quality acts... We wanted to keep the spirit of the place alive and we will produce many great artists in their quest for distinction."
Originally built in 1886, it was originally a Masonic temple, and since being transformed into a studio space, has seen Arcade Fire (Neon Bible, The Suburbs), Wolf Parade, Beirut, Colin Stetson, Timber Timbre and many more record there.
