Bay Area Recording Studio TOUR & INTERVIEW | East Bay Recorders & Michael Rosen

In this video we go on a tour of the amazing East Bay Recorders, a studio located in Oakland CA. We also get to interview owner Michael Rosen and learn how he went from graveyard shift at 7-11 to a grammy award winning producer/engineer who's worked with Rancid, Green Day, Santana, Journey, AFI, Tesla, and many many more!
A special thanks to Michael Rosen and AJ Hicks for taking the time to chat about life, music and showing me around the studio! Their details can be found below
