about me

Hey there, and thanks so much for stopping by. My name is Joe Shirey, and I would love to help you make the album of your dreams a reality. I have been playing music for over 15 years, and recording it for more than 10. I started my journey out of a desire to record my own music, and quickly realized that my heart and talent was pulling me to the studio, rather than the stage. Since then, I've worked with artists ranging from Country to Electronic, and from Metal to Acapella. Along the way I've been fortunate to pick up a trick or two (and a whole lot of equipment).

An Arlington, VA native, it's my goal to operate the finest project studio inside the beltway. Some of the various projects I've worked on are linked below, so please take a listen. I pride myself on adaptability and flexibility, so whether you are planning your first-ever single as a Songwriter, or your Hardcore band's next full-length, drop me a line and let's talk!

All tracks above were either Produced, Recorded, Mixed, or Mastered by Joe Shirey

the studio

Situated in the heart of Arlington, VA, Senate Sound provides the equipment and technology of a facility many times its size, while maintaining the comfortable environment of a suburban retreat. The studio is equipped to meet the creative and technical demands of every step of the album-making process: Writing, Production, Recording, Mixing, and Mastering.

The studio has been designed to be an optimal, accurate listening environment, and is outfitted with acoustic treatment from GIK Acoustics. Beyond the tools available for recording, mixing, and mastering, Senate offers a broad palette of instruments for use during tracking. A full list of available equipment is provided at the link below.
