“I decided in 2018 to quit playing covers in bars, which I had done for my whole life, and started concentrating on only my original music. I played festivals as a solo, went to Eclipse and worked with Jim to record some of my originals. I thought I know a lot about recording – I didn’t. With Jim’s guidance I produced an original album in 2019 (well over a million Spotify streams) and a very successful EP in 2020. Jim, Uller and Angie, who arrange and sing BGVs on my recordings, have been instrumental in my success. I’m releasing a new album in May and going on a 6 city UK concert tour in July. Without Eclipse, Jim, Angie and Uller all this would not have been possible. I owe my success to them.”

“I am proud to say I have been working with Jim and the team at Eclipse for close to twenty years. The facility is first-rate and they have always accommodated whatever my needs were for the project I was working beyond my expectations. The staff is professional, knowledgeable, and willing to help in any way required. Working with Uller Bailey has been a pleasure – he is not only an incredibly talented musician, sound engineer, and producer but he participated in such a manner that working a session with him is almost like having another co-writer.”

“Jim and Tom run a first class studio. We had a great session that went from guitars, to vocals and full drum overdubs…. they were fast and on top it. We got great sounds and they treated the artist with the utmost respect.”

“When it came time to narrate my third book for Audible, I did not hesitate one heartbeat in choosing Eclipse Studio, which did such a fabulous job with my first two audio books. I highly recommended Eclipse for the necessary high quality recording and technical uploading of files needed for excelling audio books such as mine turned out to be.
Thanks, Jim and your great staff!

“Recording at Eclipse has been a pleasure of mine since 2017. Jim, Uller, and the entire staff make you feel completely comfortable, and at home. Every project that is special to you is special to them, and they will help you get it right, and to your satisfaction. I have done voice recordings, saxophone recordings, and flute recordings, both solo and with a variety of artists, and I treasure every one of them. I highly recommend Eclipse Recording Company!

“I arrived in St. Augustine last year ready to record for the third time and will always be grateful I found Eclipse. Everything about working with Jim and his team turned out better than I imagined. I’m thrilled with the final product and with the value I got for the price. I worked mostly with Uller Ibarra Bradley, and quickly learned to rely on his amazing musicianship, professionalism, and knowledge. He really did help me take this work to a new level. This is a first-class organization with great, experienced, friendly people who get where you are trying to go. I whole heartedly recommend Eclipse, and I will be back.”

“We have hired Eclipse Recording for our Festival sound needs for several years. Jim and his staff have always been professional, courteous and provided a positive experience for the visitors and performers. They have even filled in for the Emcee to everyone’s delight. Jim’s knowledge of the sound business and his willingness to advise us has helped to make our event a success for the Lions and the community we serve.”

“Eclipse studios has all the modern gear to give a recording artist the ability to express their music and themselves. However, the real key ingredient to what makes Eclipse exceptional is its very knowledgeable and talented people. They are all an absolute dream to work with and enhance the collaboration process of creating music.

Jim Stafford with his years of experience in the music business always has a way to get the very best out of an artist. His creative suggestions to the process are so full of insight and bring an unparalleled benefit to making the best record possible.

Uller Bailey is not only an exceptional musician and arranger but he can take a musical composition to the highest level. He brings a plethora of subtle sweetness to any song he works on. His creativity is in one word, exceptional!

If you want to not only complete an audio recording but also want to complete a video too, then Eclipse is your one-stop shop because of Angie Bailey, their head of video production. To say she has talent and creativity in that process is an understatement. She can take any video production to the stratosphere. In fact, she did with my “I Miss Your Touch” video. As of the date, I’m writing this, that video has only been out a month and has over 60,000 views on youtube. No way that would have happened without Angie’s creativity, Uller’s genius for arranging and soulful guitar playing, and Jim’s strategic management of the whole process.

You can go into any modern-day studio and have excellent gear, what you get at Eclipse is the priceless talent and creativity behind the gear. There’s no studio in the world I would rather work in than Eclipse Studios!”
