VibeCheck Studios opens in Fresno's Tower District supporting local creatives

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- VibeCheck Studios officially opened its doors Sunday in Fresno's Tower District, creating a new space for local content creators, artists and photographers.

The studio, located inside a Fresno landmark, will offer resources for a variety of creatives, including podcasters, artists and photographers.

Owner Ralph Edwards, a Fresno native and runner-up on The Voice, said he chose to open the business in Fresno to help develop local talent and give back to the community.

"I'd rather let people know in Fresno that you could make it here and give people an opportunity to make it here and so that's the goal. I got a lot of eyes on me and so we're working on that. We want to take advantage; we want to make sure that everybody understands you can make it from Fresno," Edwards said.

The business is housed in the home once owned by Paul Kindler, known as "The Castle," a historic residence in the Tower District located between Glenn and Blackstone avenues. The home features French Norman and Tudor Revival-style architecture.

VibeCheck Studios offers studio rentals, recording sessions and lessons. Those interested in booking a session can visit the VibeCheck website.
