The
Wellcraft Music Group is pleased to announce a new studio
in Nashville. Partnering with famed engineer Bart Pursley,
the new facility is called "Stage 7 Music Group"
& is now well under construction in Goodletsville, a
suburb of Nashville. Grammy nominated, Bart Pursley is the
engineer on Gretchen Wilson, Big & Rich, Keith Anderson
& a long list of Nashville stars. This new partnership
with Wellcraft Music is going to offer all artists the option
of recording all or part of their project in Nashville,
not at a demo joint trying to cut masters, but at a first
class studio with first class people working with you. I
think if you check out Bart's long list of projects, you
will see how this will only strengthen our all ready strong
operation. Check him out at allmusic
& look up Bart Pursley for yourself.

Jim Hopson, President of Wellcraft Music sittin in with
associate Bart Pursley at
Studio 27 during the mix of Gretchen Wilson's new album.
Stage 27 sits in the
middle of Gretchen's several hundred acre estate a few miles
from Nashville.
