A RECORDING and rehearsal studio is appealing for support during the coronavirus crisis.

Small Pond Recordings in Castle Street, Brighton, has launched a crowdfunding campaign to help keep the business afloat while it is closed and no one will be practising or recording in the studio.

The Small Pond team states on its GoFundMe page: “When we built the studio back in 2015 we didn’t just want to build some practice rooms, we wanted to build a community hub for like-minded artists.We have poured our hearts into this and we hope you can help us weather the storm.

"If – and only if – you can afford it, please consider donating, purchasing a token for a future studio booking or buying a vinyl LP.”
