Muscle Shoals Sound Studio
Muscle Shoals Sound Studio, Recording studio in Sheffield, United States
The Muscle Shoals Sound Studio features vintage recording equipment, original instruments, and period-correct furnishings that maintain the 1970s recording environment.
The studio opened in 1969 when four session musicians known as The Swampers left FAME Studios to establish their independent recording facility.
Many influential artists including The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, and Aretha Franklin recorded albums within these walls, shaping musical genres across decades.
Tours run hourly from 10:30 AM to 3:30 PM, with tickets remaining valid throughout the day if visitors need schedule flexibility.
The basement recording space contains the original analog recording console where musicians created over 75 Gold and Platinum certified records.
