Hello my friends and fellow humans! It is such an honor to share with you the news this August. September will mark six months since buying The Music Factory building. It has been a complete joy working on repairs and upgrades, always exploring new ways to best serve the community. Having such a positive and beautiful dream unfold has inspired round-the-clock work exploring possibilities. One area of focus has been developing a record label under the same umbrella: Music Factory Records. Music Factory Records - Explore Links Here - https://linktr.ee/musicfactoryrecords
