Portside Sound

Portside Sound Recording Studio inside the Cypress Moon building (Formerly Muscle Shoals Sound). Walking through the doors is like stepping back in time.

Portside Sound is a full service large format recording studio located on the bank of the Tennessee River in Studio B of the Cypress Moon Studios complex. The building formerly housed the historic Muscle Shoals Sound Studio from 1979 through 1985 and the recording space remains virtually unchanged since then. Designed by Claude Hill and Steven Durr the rooms reflect the cutting edge of late 70's s

tudio design. The sound and vibe of these rooms is beyond compare and really must be experienced to be appreciated. We are equipped to handle the entire production spectrum from fully "in the box" digital recording to a vintage all analog signal path that never touches a computer and any hybrid combination in between. Between our wide assortment of gear, microphones, instruments, and amplifiers and the wildly diverse pool of extremely talented session musicians this area has to offer there is virtually no musical vision that cannot be realized here.

Tonight we’re celebrating the release of Holy Island from at the studio! 7pm

This party has it all. We’ll listen to the record on the big monitors, we’ve got a U87 in a booth for anyone to go try, we’ve got instruments set up with headphones for silent jam sessions, we’ve got snacks, we’ve got vinyl records. What more could you ask for on a Friday night?

In 1921 Henry Ford planned to build a manufacturing hub in Muscle Shoals but it never materialized. In some alternate reality out there the MC5 and Stooges might have kicked off their ear drum assault in Muscle Shoals, but in this reality have it covered. Play it loud!
