We are pleased to announce that John Kilgore, of John Kilgore Sound and Recording, has purchased the former
Masque Sound Recording Studio.
“This studio is one of the gems of the NYC recording scene,” Kilgore
said. “The artists who have worked here run the gamut from Eric Idle
and Gwyneth Paltrow to Mario, Mandy Patinkin and the New York Philharmonic. We’ve
established a remarkable reputation, and when the opportunity arose to carry on
the tradition under my own banner, I couldn’t let it pass.”
Commenting on the change of ownership, Masque Sound VP Geoff Shearing remarked,
“my brother James and I have a deep affection for this recording studio, it’s
been a mainstay of our business since our grandfather co-founded the company in
1936. Our business plan calls for a concentration on live sound, broadcast services,
custom wireless, new product development and with the recent introduction of our
new Masque Entertainment division, DVD production. Our decision to sell the studio
was made significantly easier by the fact that John Kilgore will continue to be
responsible for its operation. His recording, mixing and management skills are integral
components of the studio’s on-going success. We are confident that our business
and personal relationships will continue to flourish, and we look forward to working
with him in the future. John will always be a member of the Masque Sound family.”
