James Sabella has been in the music industry for more than 30 years, starting
as a student of classical guitar with interest in pop music & influenced
by the artists of the 60s. He attended the University of Venezuela, the
Juilliard School of Music and Mannes School of Music. Click here

career started in the mid-70s with guitar session work at various studios
and club performances. He was signed to RCA Records and MCA Records as
an artist in the early 80s. Because of his huge interest in the recording
process, he became an independent recording engineer/producer, still continuing
to play as an artist. He has taken the blend of musician/engineer/producer
and built a state-of-the-art facility located away from the hectic pace
of Manhattan. The studio was designed by Frank Commentale (designer of
the Hit Factory).
Sabella Recording Studios received independent and major label recognition
with such platinum records as Public Enemy's -Nation Of Millions- in 1984
and Marcy Playground's debut release in 1997 (Marcy has also just finished
recording their second album at Sabella). The Marcy Playground success
brought a whole new crop of young bands into the studio, and three of
them won excellence awards as the best unsigned talent and several are
now signed on independent labels. In-house producing and talent development
is one of the added strengths of Sabella Studios. |
