WE’RE PASSIONATE ABOUT WHAT WE DO

“Working with Jeff Berkley in the studio is a comfortable zone of creativity. He makes me feel at ease and encourages me to be my best.”
Sande Lollis
“Jeff is the perfect blend of top-notch professionalism and fun! Being in the studio is a real treat; jokes, interesting conversations, and enjoyment are interwoven with efficient and top-notch music production.”
Randy Mark
“Jeff not only put us at ease and made the process fun, but also added immeasurable value to our music with insight, instrumentation, and his incredible ear for a lyrical adjustment, a new harmony, or a poignant moment of silence.”
Story & Tune (Ben Grace & Karyn Thurston)
“Jeff knows when to nudge and when to listen. He kept everything fun and light and allowed me to relax and just make music. What a sweet experience!”
Dave Booda
“Jeff has so many tools to make a great sound - by creating such a fun atmosphere at Satellite, I could really relax, focus, and stretch my creative wings to a level I never imagined.”
I’ll take a dozen!
“I’ve been lucky enough to have recorded 14 studio records and CDs over the last 27 years. Jeff Berkley recorded, engineered, produced, mixed and played on every one of them.”
