At IOU Studio’s we feel that we have a very new, exciting and adventuresome approach to the world of Art.
Basically we have various amazingly talented and humble artists who work collaboratively on all sorts of artistic projects whether it's music, video, literature, painting, to name a few. Then we utilize you, the audience, for feedback and support to help achieve and promote these various artistic projects which then can be raw and original and without corporate influence.

Years and years ago were all jammed in the studio we got a full session and good buddy of mine met in the Cable Television work days his name was Tom not a musician but welcome guest. Well lets just say music and everything imaginable was flying. Another music buddy of studio Mark G was jamming out a bass guitar riff and Drummer Dave was throwing down beat. Anyway Dr T (Tom) was feeling no pain and starting rapping some lyrics out and I said hey write em down.
So anyway here we are many years later and decide to do a quick first band video just figured turn on recorder and camera’s and let it fly. Now band had played song before a couple times and even played live at our Auditorium concert couple months ago.
Anyway here it is “Funk Farm” about a music, party, farm, and probably something we need a little more of these days !!!

Here's a very old IOU Studio Live Music Video. It's about a gamer kid who see's and controls all the candestine activity in the world and the universe. Lead guitartist is a very talented and great guy named Collin who I miss greatly and hope he is doing very well !!! All musicians are amazing human beings there creative energy is what sets them apart but just like comedians many of them have very difficult lives. So lets take a moment and silently Pray for all musicians who struggle and some thrive to make a the world a little more enjoyable for our ears and our souls.
