NEW!!! Announcing our upcoming celebration! We are hosting our CD Release party for "Mr. Maybe" at Howard's Billiards! Check out the Events Page for the details!
Tool Box Records was independently created in 1998 by Frank Lancaster, Veronica Rimkus and Don VanMeter. Together, the three musicians and vocalists decided to take a step forward in creating their music by forming an independent label and recording studio. Below, you will find some mini-bios on Frank, Veronica & Don. For a more extensive look at the members of Tool Box Records, check out the individual bio pages.
Mr. Maybe, a CD written, produced and arranged by members of Tool Box Records, is the latest completed project to come out of Tool Box Records. Check out the CDs and Cassettes pages to listen to some of our music!
All recording at Tool Box Records is accomplished using state of the art digital equipment. Tracks are recorded and mixed using a high performance digital audio workstation running SEKD Samplitude 2496. A variety of effects can be added to each track including compression, equalization, reverb and delay. All projects are mastered & digitally recorded direct to CD. Tool Box Records has the facilities to take a song from conception to completion.
