The University of North Alabama has a partnership with Noiseblock Studios located next door to the Department of Entertainment Industry. This partnership will allows for recording studio hours in the state of the art facility for students in Entertainment Industry programs. The creative partner at Noiseblock is producer songwriter Gary Baker who is a co-writer on songs such as “I Swear” and “I’m Already There”. The partnership allows the university to capture the time at a fraction of the market value.
