Strengthen the Family Unit with Music Rehearsals

Richard Morales — Sat, 16 Oct 2010 14:42:47 +0000

There is something special when families use our rehearsal space to practice their music, have fun and at the same time strengthen the ties of their family unit. What a cool thing to be part of that.

The Abellera family and Hothouse Studios has been building our relationship, since we opened the studio doors 7 years ago. I can remember JoJo bringing the kids in to jam for the first time. Justine was only 11, Bryan was still a baby and A.D. had just become a teenager. Boy did they have fun. The kids were so excited.

Now Bryan is playing the drums, Justine is right out front leading the group on guitar and vocals and JoJo (dad) is still playing those bass lines. Watch this video of them covering the Bruno Mars song “Just the Way You Are”.

Thank you JoJo, A.D., Justine and Bryan, it warms our heart to be part of your life’s experience.

Justine Abigail/Vocal-Guitar-16yrs old, Bryan on drums 8yrs old and their Father Jojo in the Auditorium at Hot-House Studio..:)

Messenger Live at the Sunset Room

Hothouse Rehearsal Studios — Tue, 28 Sep 2010 14:39:28 +0000

I had an amazing experience Thursday night. I went to watch Messenger, one of our favorite bands that rehearses’ here, perform at a restaurant/bar called the Sunset Room in Hacienda Heights. I had a blast!

Messenger’s two hour set began with Melinda solo on acoustic guitar performing original material and covering some of her favorite songs. She had the crowding mesmerized.

The band took the stage and the sounds of Messenger filled the club. The crowd loved their music and loud applause ended every song. Patrons got up and started dancing and the place was hopping with energy. Messenger put on a dazzling show.

Watch an exclusive video and learn more about Messenger at their artist page at Hothousestudios.com.

The Sunset Room is a throwback to a better time when music venues didn’t make the band pay to play. Here is the amazing part…the Sunset Room pays the band to be the live entertainment for their patrons. That’s right, they pay the band. They know the value of live music

The Sunset Room offers an upscale ambience with a laid back vibe. They have a well rounded menu and every Thursday emerging bands take center stage and the dinner crowd is there enjoying their meal and the live music. I just loved it.

I’ll be mentioning the Sunset Room to all the bands that rehearse here at Hothouse Studios as the venue to play.

Spring Cleaning is FUNNNNNNNNNN!!!

Richard Morales — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 06:25:03 +0000

Tonight I’ve been cataloging all the recent video footage we’ve shot here at Hothouse studios. Earlier tonight I have two stacks of 8 tapes each full of raw footage I was uploading to the hard drives and preparing to begin editing and producing the marketing videos I upload to the internet (7 different sites that is) for the bands that use the Hothouse facility.

The New Music Monday live TV show we’re producing now is also videotaped, so lots of footage. It’s fun watching the shows as they upload. Well I thought I’d take a break from uploading and write down in the log.

Big thank yous to Downshove, Crossed Keys, Scentric, End of Innocence, Sayonara Tokyo, SureWill, Edward J of KJFJ and Stephany Rose for being part of the Hothouse Rehearsal Studio Community.
