The RecShop is a Multi-purpose Music Space with community at its core. Founded in 2015, its mission is to make the music industry more accessible by providing opportunities for young and emerging artists to create, learn, and grow.
Based inside The Mall, Wood Green, The RecShop has become a vibrant hub for collaboration, culture, and creativity. Through its free Studio Drop-In sessions, young people aged 11–25 can access professional studio time in 3-hour blocks every 10 weeks. Its Artist Accelerator Academy (AAA) supports emerging talent through workshops, recording sessions, and live performance opportunities.
The RecShop also runs The RecFest, an annual community music festival, and facilitates volunteering and work experience placements that help develop creative and professional skills. The space doubles as a venue for hire, complete with a bar, merchandise, and vinyl shop — with all proceeds reinvested into community projects.
Whether supporting artists finding their sound, providing opportunities for volunteers, or collaborating with partners invested in creativity, The RecShop is a place where opportunity and artistry meet.
