Guus…

Guus Hoevenaars took over Newmarket Studios early 2019 having moved to Melbourne from London where he worked with artists such as Scissor Sisters, The Pierces, Pony and Trap, HYMNS and Manfred Mann. He brings his intuition, knowledge and inspiration having worked from Trevor Horn’s Music Bank, The Holland Arms at Jools Holland’s studio and Manfred Mann’s Workhouse Studios in London and Soapbox Studios in Atlanta.

Some of the people who have come to record with Guus are Kingswood, The Rookies, Courtney Barnett, Vance Joy, Disney Goes Classical DECCA, Claps, Tones and I, Clint Wilson, TK Maizda, Young Billy Davis, Woodes, Bonnie Anderson, Dean Bryant, Kaos, Orchestra Victoria, Syzergy, Dave Wier, Grace Jean to name a few.

Founding the Newmarket Collective is a result of a vision to build a community of studio creatives, where collaboration from both sides of the glass is the focus. When red light goes on the unique Newmarket vibe and united energy is captured on tape.

“Hand picking The Collective has been such an honour, to work closely with our incredible musicians is inspiring every time we are in the studio. I am in absolute awe of my friends here and love every single thing that we do together, a unique blend of sonorous power, deep musical intuition and connectedness …and a bucket load of laughs makes for a very special place to be.”
