Located in scenic Elysian Park, Echo Park, Los Angeles, the 430 sqft studio combines high-end sound design with creative comfort. Designed by an acoustician for optimized sound treatment and isolation, the studio features both a mixing room and a control room, serving artists and producers across genres.

The studio is equipped with high-quality instruments, premium microphones, and versatile gear, supporting both digital and analog (tape) setups. Natural daylight, mountain views, and outdoor access add to the relaxed, professional atmosphere.

Echo Park’s vibrant neighborhood—close to DTLA—offers plenty of food, art, and late-night options for creative breaks. Whether you’re recording a band, podcasting, shooting content, or working on ADR, The Barbershop is ready to be your next creative space.
