A live music rehearsal studio in Greenwich, London

Scott Green

Rehearsal studios can often feel functional rather than inspiring — tired equipment, harsh lighting and rooms designed purely for utility. The idea is to create a cool rehearsal space in Greenwich: comfortable, stylish with quality amps, drum kits and PA equipment, good acoustics and thoughtful lighting. There could also be a selection of synths, keyboards and other instruments available to experiment with, encouraging musicians to try things they might not have access to at home. Somewhere with a relaxed, creative atmosphere that feels as suited to making and experimenting with music as it does rehearsing it. Rooms could be booked easily by the hour, with evenings and weekends available, catering for bands, solo musicians, singers, producers and electronic musicians across Greenwich and southeast London. Longer term, the space could become a small local music hub — with a communal area, coffee, or bar!, instrument storage, recording facilities, workshops or events.
