Frank's teaching style is very open and catered to the student and he makes learning very fun and is also very encouraging especially for beginners! I would highly recommend if you're looking for a drum teacher/lessons, Frank is very helpful and knowledgeable!

I am completely dumfounded that someone could leave a negative review of Frank's efforts in any…read morecapacity, whether they be studio drumming, lessons, recording--you name it. He is a consummate professional and one of the hardest working people I have ever met in my life, who makes this look easy (doing music professionally). The only people who would leave a negative review are posers and reverse-shills. Having worked with Frank in nearly every facet, short of being taught how to play drums (I have taught with him though for years), it goes without saying for me, that he is worth every star I just gave him, because that is what he is: a star and a sun. If you don't believe that as well, it is because you reside in the shadows, where you belong. A bright star casts a dark shadow, and there you are. Frank has played on many of my songs and has recorded and engineered on more songs than I can count well beyond my meager contribution to music as an art form. You don't need to take my word for it. Try him yourself, and then one will not be speaking from a place of ignorance, in the shadows.

Located somewhere inland Long Beach, this studio is a good, affordable place with large rooms, good…read moresound, and fair pricing. However, prices are going up in a month a couple bucks, so keep that in mind. They have small, medium, and large rooms. The medium room seems like a large to me. We got 7 people in there with amps. Unlike many rehearsal studios, this one provides a snare, in case you don't want to lug yours. I've seen the owner with a double bass pedal but am not sure if that is able to be used or you have to pay extra. The owner is pretty friendly. There is even a record store attached to the rehearsal studios. The only problem I've found was parking. Sometimes I get lucky and find a spot right out front, and sometimes I have to park all the way around the block. Still, it's totally worth checking out. Recommended for band practice.

For me, Grooveworks is home, and I'll definitely keep coming back!

The audio engineer was very patient with my son and his friends. They were writing down lyrics for the rap AT the recording studio, while the audio engineer was converting his song on spotify into his protools. Great microphone. An the recording quality was great, watching him move around protools sop fast was hypnotizing. The mix sounded great and he was teaching my sons friend how to play different chords on the guitar. He also taught him how to solo. He has a great keyboard with many sounds including a really good sounding rhodes, clavinet, and piano. He shared a lot of wisdom and showed my son where to get protools and how to use it. My son and one of his friends rapped, and he was patient, giving them as many tries as they would like. he also added beat drops, and quickly mixed the song down. He airdropped it to me. My son, his friends, and I were overall completely satisfied with his performance, patience, swiftness, wisdom, and kindness. I highly reccomend this studio, and hope you will give it a try!

This guy was amazing…read more He was super patient, very helpful, very knowledgeable about troubleshooting during our mix session and an overall a calm presence during, what could be a stressful experience. He worked very fast but didn't rush us at all. He went far and beyond all of our expectations that were accumulated from past recording experiences at other studios. The studio itself is so nice and feels very comfortable and inviting. It's the kind of place that you want to hang out in. Very cool vibe . Super clean and while you're recording it puts you in a creative place. I would absolutely recommend Big Ego studios. Our EP sounds great and my band is very blown away by how awesome the experience was. Tristen is the man! Do yourself a favor and check this place out.
