Chicago studios with a good piano?
Can anyone recommend some good Chicago studios with a piano? We're a baby band looking to cut our first EP/Demo and I'd prefer not to use sampled piano, if we can.

Great Piano
Chicago Public Radio has a really nice recording room with a beautiful Steinway grand piano. Really nice mic collection and mic pres too.
It's a little on the pricey side and might not be the right vibe to do the whole demo/ep, but the piano is worth it, even to spring for a couple hours of overdubs.
There's info on their website or send me a PM and I'll get you my contact there.

the best solution is to contact "Keylard and Sons" in Northlake and rent a piano to take into your studio of choice.
there isn't a studio in Chicago that has a piano that sounds marvelous - much less a marvelous room to put one in. not a single one.
