About the Residence

Finding uninterrupted time to create can be tough when you are balancing work, family, and everyday life. We get it. Dreambox is the only residential recording studio in Minneapolis offering artists a dedicated place to stay while they focus on their project. If you need space to finally finish that album, write new material, or immerse yourself in the creative process, you can live and record in one inspiring location.

The fully equipped living space features two bedrooms, one bathroom, a pull-out couch, a full kitchen, and a deck overlooking the Mississippi River. Guests also have access to bikes and canoes/kayaks in the garage, and the studio is within walking distance of some of Minneapolis’s best breweries, coffee shops, and restaurants. Small traveling bands, up to four people, are welcome to stay, rehearse in the studio before their show, and store gear securely in the two-car garage. And Natalie will gladly take you canoeing on the Mississippi River! 

Lodging and studio time are booked separately, with pricing based on the length of stay and scope of your project. Artists staying in the residence must book at least a half-day session at the studio. We ask all guests to treat the space with care and respect so it remains a welcoming creative retreat for everyone who comes through Dreambox.
