Queens of the Stone Age Make Music at Video Arts
What do you do when the manager of a famous rock band calls up and says, "Hey, we want to record some tracks in Fargo. Can we do it at your place?" The answer from us was a resounding, "YES!" And so it came to be that members of the California rock bands, "Queens of the Stone Age" and "Eagles of Death Metal," spent a marathon twelve hours in our state-of-the-art recording studio.The bands, led by Josh Homme, arrived on Monday, July 30th with an audio engineer who had flown in from Los Angeles especially for this project. You may be wondering, why did Homme and band mate, Jesse Hughes, want to record at Video Arts in Fargo? The duo says they wanted the flavor of playing in small market recording studios to seep into their music. And since we have one of the premiere recording and sound studios in the Midwest, Homme and Hughes say it was a no-brainer to pick us.

"This was an exciting project for us to be able to provide our recording services for a nationally recognized musical act," says Steve. Boise and Fargo were the only cities "Queens of the Stone Age" chose to record in. The fact that they chose us was flattering but also shows our commitment to providing high quality recording service and experience. "The Queens chose to spend their one night off in between shows at Video Arts, and we are honored they did," Steve says.  ROCK ON Josh and Jesse!
