Explore The Studio

Basecamp Recording Studio was built on two acres of private property at the edge of the Gallatin National Forest near Hyalite Lake.  It’s 7 miles from historic down town Bozeman, Montana.

Skilled contractors, consultants and acoustic engineers were employed to create this two level sound-proof facility.  Basecamp features four isolated tracking rooms - all with clear sight lines through glass, and individual headphone mixers which allow musicians control and visibility during sessions. 

Basecamp is a sanctuary where songwriters get in to the zone in a warm, distraction-free environment to focus on the art and craft of making great recordings.

Session Shots

  • Artists from near and far have come to record at Basecamp, including:  Georgia, Arizona, Arkansas, Maine, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Nashville, Colorado – and the UK (Ireland, England) … and many more.
  • My primary focus and what I’m most passionate about is career driven original singer songwriters – acoustic based, with extra supportive layers for production.
  • I’ve produced projects in a variety of genre’s ranging from folk/Americana, country, bluegrass, Celtic, heavy rock, jazz, spoken word, R&B… even a little rap.
  • My production approach airs on being transparent, less-is-more and collaborative.  I seek to serve the song and fulfill the artists’ clearest vision.
  • As a producer / collaborator I can step in at any point in the process:  from the writing/arranging and pre production all the way through producing, mixing and mastering.  
  • I enjoy working with artists at any level of their craft – from emerging or hobbyist to full-time, seasoned touring artists.

"Basecamp is a wonderful space to work in whether you are tracking in the control room or playing with other musicians in the 
main room. The equipment is top notch as are the sounds Chris gets from his gear. When I know that I have a session at Basecamp, 
I look forward to it both from a musical perspective as well as a business one."
