In The Studio w/ Viral Studios
By Dude Thomas
During last summer, Jonas Woodstock met Sid Summerson at an Iowa festival. Jonas liked Sid’s sound work that he was doing for other artists at smaller venues and had discussed music at lenghth. He later hired Sid to run his sound for a performance at The Hangover Tap in Hanover, Illinois. Both were pleased with the evening and agreed to proceed later with music recordings together.
This winter Jonas Woodstock went into the recording studio to record his first professionally recorded album as his one man band act the “Gypsy Hippie Hillbilly Dudes Roadside Revival”. Working with Sid Summerson, from Viral Studios, the album is scheduled for May release.
Viral Studios is a mobile recording operation based in Wapello, Iowa. Viral Studios was established in 2018 with Mr. Summerson as the owner and recording engineer. Viral studios has worked with the bands “Never Knows Best”, “The Good Catch”, and “Obey the Virus”. Viral Studios has recorded two number one singles in the local top twenty. One of the singles reached number one the first week of release.
