THANKS FOR THE KIND WORDS!
"I want you to know that I am very pleased with the quality of the CD and the entire process of recording it. I relly enjoyed working with you in the studio. You were professional, efficient and yet relaxed and patient. You accomplished what I believe is the mark of good producers and engineers-you made us sound better than we actually are. I have no problem highly recommending you to other groups considering who to use fot their recording projects.
Thanks Again Mercy Road


​"John- WOW! What can we say? It was such a pleasure to work with you on our new project. We made some great memories. You truly made the recording time relaxing and enjoyable. Thank you for your hours or hard work engineering. We pray this CD will be a blessing to you!"
David Abbott


"Thank You for the beautiful work that you completed with Brittany Jean, We cannot be more pleased with the skill and musicianship you have brought to Brittanys music. We fully understand and marvel at the rather ELITE group that John orchestrated for this effort. Your resumes are quiet impressive and we truly marvel at your skill. I'm sure that it is not as "easy as it looks" but we delight in watching and hearing you create music. We know that you have worked with ALL the Major players in Nashville and are indeed among those same major players. As impressive as that is, the most impressive thing about you and your abilities is the fact that you bring that same effort and that same careful, crafted, musicianship and enthusiasm to the music of Brittany Jean. Your words and comments of encouragement about Brittanys music has been noticed and greatly appreciated. Never having done this before, there was certainly an element of apprehension on our part. We had never met you before and we certainly did not know the musicians that Brittany would be working with. Any fears that we may have had were erased the minute we first met you. Brittany told me later that she was nervous about the whole thing until she met you. You put her at ease and each one of the musicians that we met just continued that comfort level."
James Walker and Brittany Jean


"John,I am so excited to have the opportunity to work with you and Hilltop Studios. Thank you for having me."
Janelle


"Just thought I should drop you a line on behalf of all the Hicksville Band to thank you for your hard work last week. We had a really amazing time, a great experience and are really delighted with the results! Its a real tribute to your knowledge and professionalism that we were ably to do so much so quickly-we achieved far more than we imagined we would in the time we had. If you ever have anyone from the UK who wants to know about the experience of recording at Hilltop, please feel free to give them our name and email, we'll be happy to sing your praises."
Regards Billy (The Hicksville Band UK)


"Hey John I just want to tell you again what a pleasure it was having you mix us. Not only was it clean and pumping, but tight and focused as well. You're a genius mad scientist!"
Take care Bryan
 

"Thanks for a great session! Love the mix and the studio. Thanks for producing and the Mix sounds great."
Cooter Daniel
 
 
"I am always hearing nice things said about Hilltop, so I thought I would post some comments. Recording at Hilltop is like recording in a big comfortable home with a welcoming environment and all of the latest technology. They have all the bells and whistles; great rooms with excellent acoustic treatment and isolation, a huge microphone collection, and a great staff. What else could you possibly need for a great recording?" 
Hugh Moore
OMS Records, Inc.



"We are looking forward to working with you again in the near future. The Studio musicians were the best of the best. We were very pleased with the overall sound. Hilltop Studios is a top of the line studio in Nashville, TN  We would recommend Hilltop Studios to anyone who wants a very professional sound."
Thanks,
Gary for The Amundruds
 

"Working at Hilltop Studios is always a pleasure. The equipment is well maintained and the atmosphere is professional and pleasant which is a plus for my clients. Ive been using Hilltop Studios for many years."
Nick Bruno


"Being a foreigner one is always a bit worried and nervous. John and his crew made me feel very welcome and at ease. I took the ProTools files with me back home and it was a breeze to download them to my computer and do the remix. I would love to come back for more"
Best regards Finn 


"Great sound and service at Hilltop!  Studio clean and comfortable.  Price quoted at booking is the same when its time to settle up!  Thats class!  Thanks John & Steve!"  
Ben Wasson


"All the way from Alaska, we searched for a top quality recording studio and found it near Nashville at Hilltop.  It was well worth the travel both times recording there, and we are planning on going again.  When the topic of recording comes up, we recommend Hilltop to all the musicians we run into.  When you find perfection, why try anyone else."  
 The Allen Sisters


"I used Hilltop studios for my first independent recording and I sale it alongside my other albums,as it is still a favorite among my fans..I cant say enough about this fine recording facility, I  brought my father back to record his first long awaited album.  Thanks Hilltop for making my musical dreams a reality..."

 "I have been recording and producing projects at Hilltop for over 15 years.  The drums always sound great, both  control room’s sound great when mixing.  John is a great person to work with and maintains a great facility. There is no better bang for the buck in Nashville."
Jed Seneca | Engineer-Producer


Between the state-of-the-art facilities, bucolic setting, and decades of history, Hilltop is truly a Nashville landmark, and fully deserving of its reputation as one of the best studios in Nashville.  But the real draw for me was John Nicholson.  Hes a consummate producer and engineer, and an artists best friend in the studio.  He knows how to get the best from you while maintaining a positive and laid-back atmosphere.  John Nicholson and Hilltop Studios should be on every artists short-list when theyre planning a new record."
