Studio Updates
In early April, we scheduled a couple days of "downtime" to do some massive work to our live area. The resulting remodel has nearly doubled our space the completely overhauled look feels incredible and cohesive with our upgraded control room. Stop by and check it out!
Since then, we've been virtually non-stop with a ton of great new artists.
This month, releases from Jeffrey Lee and Fear the Lions have made their way into the world, we're currently wrapping up releases with The Industry, Retra, Barbaroi, and Hollow Kings!
We've just started work on If Only's debut EP and Monarch's second full-length album!
Next month we'll be kicking off with new music from Cody Zervas, Imagery Machine (they're back!), Future Human, and another batch of songs with Barbaroi.
Booking is in full-effect for July, August, and beyond! Let's make some noise together! :)
We're almost a quarter through 2019 and this year has already been a total blur!
We've had virtually zero downtime through the first three months, and we're currently booked solid (as in ZERO days available) two months out. Stay hot, San Diego! (It's actually been really wet and rainy here, but that's a different story.)
So far this year, we've seen releases from Johan Malo and Barbaroi (formerly Ghostboy), as well as two year-long projects coming to fruition in the form of Newsiq and Life in Discord. We're EXTREMELY proud of all of the above releases and are so happy to see them out in the wild! Check them all out via Spotify, Apple Music, or wherever you stream and buy your music!
As mentioned above, our current schedule is unbelievably busy! We're currently in the studio working on new releases with The Industry, Jeffrey Lee, Retra, Ilya Shatov, and Hollow Kings!
Need to book some time? Get in touch today and reserve time before someone else snags the days you want! They're going quick this year! Thank you for helping to make this the most awesome job ever. <3
How is it possible that it's 2019 already? Wow!
If you've kept up with Clarity at all, you know that 2018 was above and beyond anything we could have hoped for. Our growth year after year is both humbling and inspiring. If we contributed to your music or sound in any way in the last 12 months, you've contributed to our most successful year ever, and that means more than we could even attempt to convey in a quick web update. THANK YOU!
This month is already in full-swing as we wrap up production on the new Wes Maharas full length, the new EP from The Danger Field, and we kick off new projects with Ghostboy and The Industry.
We're also excited for the release of the pilot of / short film Chartered this month! Our friends at Blue Vision Entertainment asked us to be a part of the audio and post-production experience, and we had a killer time! Look for more in partnership with them in the future! :)
Are you ready to get loud and record with us? Time is filling up fast for our first three months of the year! You'll want to contact us ASAP to lock in your time! Let's do it! :)
The 2018 holidays are in full swing and cruising right on by.
We're currently working on some excellent new music with Dylan Burcombe, No Signal, Retra, Wes Maharas, and The Dangerfield - tracking, mixing, and mastering the rest of the year away!
We've also started to venture into the world of film and television, and have been working closely with a couple of local production houses to mix for their web and TV products. Super excited for this new avenue!
There's a ton of open time in January and February, even with a couple EPs and a full-length in the pipeline for the early months. (More on those next month!)
Book some time today and let's make your music come to life. :)
We've entered the final three months of our busiest and most productive year by far, and we're excited that things are staying busy! October has a week open, and the rest of the year (and into 2019) is filling up with a handful of EPs and LPs! The calendar looks open, so if you're looking to record something, jump on it now before those projects start in late November! Dates will disappear quick as we nail down tracking schedules. :)
This month, we've got releases coming your way from Johan Malo, Life in Discord, Toylit, BJ Jezbera, Retra, and From Chaos and Heaven! A lot of these releases have been in production all year and we're psyched to see them finally hit the airwaves! Keep an eye on their pages, and on our samples page in case they make their way over there!
We also found a way (somehow) to make some major cosmetic upgrades to the control room amidst a bunch of tracking madness last month, so head over to the Clarity Instagram and check out some of the new photos! There's a lot more on the way, so stick around!
As always, when you're ready to get loud with us, give us a shout and let's make it happen!
August is wrapping up and we're in full mix-mode!
We've been working tirelessly on a half-dozen releases for the last couple months and we're finally nearing release dates! Score! We're looking forward to the release of new music from Life in Discord (formerly Great Northern), Toylit, The Naked I, Retra, and Johan Malo!
Currently in the mixing pipeline, we've got Lexington Field, From Chaos & Heaven, and James Bohardt, so look for new music from them in the Fall!
We're also just starting new projects with Wes Maharas, Hollow Kings, and BJ Jezbera!
That sounds like a lot, doesn't it? It's never too much. We love what we do and we want to get you in on the action. We're still wide open in mid-September and heading into the fall... let's get you in here to make some new music! Get in touch today to make some noise. :)
June was a blur, and here we are in July - where's this year going? We're so busy that it's already half gone? Whoa.
In the last couple days of June, we blocked out a couple days for a few major change at Clarity. We've upgraded the control room with a new seating setup and a new amp cabinet / workstation desk. We've acquired a brand new, fully-weighted 88-key Roland FA-08 Workstation for complete piano and key production, as well as improved sequencing with synth programming and a variety of new samples - 2500+ sounds to be exact. New production level: ludicrous mode!
This month we're kicking off fresh projects with Johan Malo, the prog-funk rockers in Retra, and Lions Against Men - a band so new they're not even on social media yet - stay tuned!
We're also proud to now have in-house music instruction on a variety of instruments by our very own Regina Marie. If you're in need of violin, viola, or piano lessons, she's available four days a week for lessons on-location at Clarity! You can contact her here, or via her music studio Instagram!
Wow! Our humble little studio has really hit a full-stride over the last few months!
This month, we're cranking out the jams with several independent projects as well as collaborating with a couple of local producers who need more of the live element in their tracks! Drum production with Keoki Lanza and the boys in Frontside, guitars and keys/layers with James Bohardt, the next full-production monthly tunes with Imagery Machine, a handful of new songs from our friends in The Naked I, and pre-production & songwriting for the new Wes Maharas full-length!
As we move forward into the next two months, we're currently slammed with virtually zero dates free through the end of July. That said, we're still VERY interested in working with everyone we can! August and September are booking now, and we'd love to get you in the studio, so contact us ASAP to get first choice on tracking days for those months!

Reviews of Our Work
"If you're looking for an amazing audio production studio in San Diego County, Clarity Recordings crushes it. Sean not only has a great ear and some amazing gear, he has the heart of an artist and is very intuitive to what other artists are trying encapsulate with their unique and individual sounds." Matt Koruba / Nothing Sacred July 13, 2016 "Sean is the best guy in San Diego to work with. Over the past five years or so i've gotten to work with some awesome producers and engineers around San Diego and LA, and at the end of the day, my experience at Clarity has trumped all other experiences. Sean has such a strong understand of music and theory that no matter what your genre is, Sean will know how to work with you and help take your songs to the next level. Over the last two months my band has been recording a full-length at Clarity and thanks to our producer/engineer, I'm confident it will be our strongest release!" Robb Laffoon / The Wild Young Hearts December 20, 2016
