Would 10/10 recommend this spot to anyone and everyone in the creative space. I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jonathan and his team for over 8 years now and it has always been an amazing experience. They also recently expanded their studio space to host live events, and even podcasting.

Native South is the spot!
5-Stars
This is an excellent spot! I had the opportunity to see it first-hand last year during an event there and was quite impressed. It's not only a studio but a multi-functional space with a very cool vibe. There are a variety of rooms that can also accommodate live music, parties and events. A filmmaker I know rented it to film several scenes for her project.

As an actor, voiceover and music artist, I could go on and on about the quality of Jonathan's work at Native South. He is hardworking, knowledgable, and will get you the sound you want. On top of that, the studio has a great atmosphere and is always clean and organized. I think the best part about this place though is Jonathan's positive attitude and passion for music.
Could not recommend Native South higher.

I’m an Irish singer songwriter from Dublin, and have worked with Jonathan there at Native South Studios over last several years. He’s co-written, produced, and mixed several of my singles. I’ve also shot a music video and some content there as well. Really great recording studio.
Highly recommended.

Excellent studio! Jonathan has somehow infused his Nashville Southern charm into the atmosphere there. It’s more than the audio gear and actual space..it’s a feeling.
Highly recommended, especially if you’re coming from Malibu or the Calabasas area.

Jonathan, the studio owner, always attracts super sweet people and we have a good time. We live in Calabasas so it’s super close. I’d recommend anything they’re doing over there!
