Jack White opens recording booth to the public

To celebrate Record Store Day (April 20), Jack White is opening a special recording booth at his Third Man Records headquarters in Nashville and he is inviting members of the public to cut some tracks.

The unique recording booth is a refurbished 1947 Voice-o-Graph. It is the only public vinyl record recording booth in the world. Fans will be able to make a two minute audio recording which will then be cut to a six-inch phonographic disc.

In a statement on the Third Man Records website, White explains: “Certain beautiful experiences can only happen in the environment of a record store and I just thought that nothing could drive that point home more than a one-of-a-kind machine that lets you not only record your own vinyl record, but send it to anyone, anywhere in the world to share a song, poem, or private message with.”

The former White Stripes frontman is an official ambassador for this year’s Record Store Day.
