Chicago, IL—On Friday, May 3rd at Elbo Room (2871 N. Lincoln Ave., Chicago, IL 60657),Sonic Palace recording studio will celebrate 10 years of recording and promoting music. For one decade now, Matt Mercado (with the help of engineer Kyle Reese) has been producing up-and-coming rap and rock artists with his affordable, full-service recording facilities. Mercado knows a thing or two about the music business. As a musician and major label recording artist himself (Daisy Chain, Mindbomb, Pivot Man, Supermercado), Mercado has seen the industry from all sides. His mission with Sonic Palace? To not just record artists and send them on their way, but to nurture and promote these artists outside the studio walls. This role, which once fell to record labels, is embraced by Sonic Palace. To back up this supportive philosophy, Mercado has organized an event to showcase the studio’s efforts.
