Author Tweed Jefferson has partnered with the International Writing Therapist's Association to create a new self-guided technique to process trauma and stress through creative writing.

The Studio
Want to get away from it all and focus on your craft? Musicians and songwriters are invited to visit our retreat in the California foothills. Contact to discuss your project and how we can help you develop it.
Telling it like it is...
So you're DIY all the way? That's cool. But when you send your tracks out to friends and family (or even bandmates), how many give you real, useful feedback? Aren't you sick of hearing "it was cool"? Send your tracks over to The Walls Instead and we'll have a selection of our producers and musicians listen to your tracks with critical ears and offer suggestions on your mix and arrangement. If you don't take our suggestions, we won't get our butt hurt.

Mixing and Mastering
If you've just finished tracking out your song and feel lost when it comes to things like EQ, compression, plugins, envelopes, filers...what was I saying? Maybe you just need a fresh set of ears to give your song the final tweaks before releasing. Send your tracks over to the lab and we'll spend some time combing over each one (and even cutting out breath noises). Your home-recorded tracks will smell so fresh and shiny and new, you'll barely recognize them.

Give Your Songs the Treatment they Deserve
Our team of producers, musicians, composers and songwriters can take your song from a skeleton of piano/guitar and vocals to a fully-orchestrated masterpiece. We can handle nearly any instrument or style of music from rock and pop to country, symphonic to electronic. Whether a hot single or a magnum opus, we're here to help!
