ABOUT THE MUSIC BUILDING

New York

Since 1979, The Music Building at 584 8th Avenue has been New York City’s premiere and most historic monthly music rehearsal facility. With 69 studios and an alumni roster that includes the likes of Madonna, Billy Idol and The Strokes, The Music Building has continuously dedicated itself to being a creative hub for NYC’s most talented musicians.

The Music Building is staffed 24/7/365 and is always accessible to its tenants! A freight elevator is available at all times for load in/out and the building is heated throughout the winter.

And more musicians the better, sublets and shares are allowed!

Chicago

Conveniently located just five minutes from downtown Chicago, The Music Building Chicago (formerly The Music Garage) has hosted Chicago’s best rehearsals since 2005. Featuring over 100 Monthly Studios and Production Suites, 9 Hourly Rehearsal Studios with full back-lines, and a Showcase Room that has hosted the biggest names in the business, the Music Garage – Now Owned by The Music Building is Chicago’s go-to location for the serious musician.

We are much, much more than just a collection of studios. Featuring one of the most diverse musical communities in the country, The Music Building Chicago (formerly The Music Garage) provides a safe, secure creative environment enabling your art to flourish.

Since The Music Building Chicago (formerly The Music Garage) hosts some of the best producers and engineers in the country we do not directly offer recording and production services.
