About

ANRS is a fantastic new recording studio based around a beautiful SSL 4000G+ desk, with ATC monitoring, Pro Tools HDX2 and a huge collection of outboard. Centrally located just off the M6 motorway in Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire – we are only 1 hour from Manchester, Liverpool and Birmingham – and only a 2 hour direct train ride from London.We are the in-house recording studio for Alive Network, the UK’s largest agent for private live entertainment bookings. All though the studio is in pretty much constant use with in-house projects we are actively looking to work with young bands and artists who need a premium quality studio but at a lower price point than most good commercial or London studios could offer. Make us an offer – Alive Network often subsidise costs to build our portfolio!We have a great team of experienced engineers, producers, writers and musicians who ensure a friendly, creative atmosphere. Recent clients have included: Honey Ryder, All The Young, The Mutineers, Pierre Bensusan, Climax Blues Band, Bison and Wolf, Adam French, Mike TV, Cardinal amongst many others.
