Welcome to Crooked River Groove

Crooked River Groove (or CRG for short) is a college accredited record label. Located on Tri-C's Metro campus, the heart of the operation is it's talented staff & faculty, a lavish, 3,000-square-foot studio, complete with a state-of-the-art editing room and beautiful recording suite. Did we mention the polished wood floors and well tuned baby grand piano?

Students from the R.A.T. program at Tri-C record and produce talented artists who might not be able to afford to record elsewhere in an environment that is not just about sales.
