Carlton Studios

The staff who began Carlton Studios; Jake McKechan, Mick Price and Barny Taplin, have a lot of knowledge in the music industry. All were involved in bands during the 80's: Jake and Mick were members of James King and the Lonewolves playing guitar and drums respectively. Barny was the lead singer and harmonica man with Sammy and the Badgers. The Studio was originally located in a redundant Art Deco bank at the corner of Crown Street and Ballater Street adjacent to the Nautical College in what is now known as the New Gorbals.
