A History of BZ and Studio 132…
BZ Lewis grew up in his father's home studio in a small town in west Texas. He remembers being 7 years old and duplicating 1/4 inch tapes on an Ampex reel to reel machine for his father's daily syndicated radio program, 'The Sound of Texas'. It wasn't long before the studio/music bug crept into his life. About the same time, he started playing piano and later developed a love for guitar. He attended an audio engineering school in Waco, Texas and received his B.A. in music with an emphasis on classical guitar from the University of Texas at Austin where he was honored as one of the best guitarists in the state of Texas by Texas Beat Magazine.
He set out for California in '93 to work on a film that launched his career, and in '96 he started recording demos for singer/songwriters in a suburb of the Bay Area. The following year he opened STUDIO 132 in downtown San Francisco. After getting married and starting a family, he moved the studio - family in tow- to it's current location in Oakland, CA, where he has been the main engineer for decades. The current Oakland recording studio location was designed from the ground up with the help of Chips Davis, (Lucasfilm's Skywalker Ranch) and tuned by Bob Hodas- the room whisperer. In 2009 - just two years after building the studio- BZ won the first of 6 Emmys. Since then he's won Telly awards, a communicator award, and awards and nominations from the Independent Music Awards and International Songwriting Awards. Things just keep looking up for BZ at Studio 132.
