The Music Lab
The Art Farm's Music Lab is an amazing space where musicians can escape the outside world and tap into the magic inside. Set on top of a volcano and surrounded by mountainous scenery in the south of France it is the perfect location to start a European tour, relax in between a hectic schedule, create new material, jam with other artists, get inspired and party day and night with no neighbours in site. We have 24 hour indoor and outdoor rehearsal spaces, an onsite bar with live music nightly and slots available for all visiting musicians, providing footage of all gigs and publicity shots taken by visiting professional and student photographers, instruments and equipment for hire and absolutely no sound restrictions, we highly encourage freeform jam sessions and experimentation.
In 2010 we will be hosting bands/solo artists touring Europe, providing them with accommodation 24hours jam spaces, an onsite venue, parties and resources for linking up with festival and other venues around Europe. We also host many artists, photographers and film makers who enjoy working closely with visiting musicians creating artistic photo shoots, footage and promotional gear.
The Bubble – is our onsite venue, it is in a restored cave of a 250 year old tradition French building (75m2) with an amazing vibe. It is a pumping restaurant, bar, venue, art gallery at night and jam space, photo/film set throughout the day.
