Team building days at Sansom Studios
A team building day in a real recording studio. Your colleagues sing or play together, we capture it properly, and you leave with a track or video to share. No musical experience needed.
Singing together is one of the quickest ways to lower barriers. Quieter colleagues often surprise everyone, themselves included.
Instead of photos of a flipchart, you leave with a professionally recorded track or video your team will actually want to share.
Hosted by Olly Sansom, a recording engineer and producer whose studio has worked with labels including Decca and RCA, and an experienced music educator. Relaxed, well organised, and fun.
Every day is planned around your team. Prices are a guide for groups of up to 15, and we confirm a fixed price before you book. No VAT to add.
from £1,200
Your team learns and records a song together, coached step by step by a professional. Great for large groups and mixed confidence.
from £1,500
A filmed team singalong for social media, your Christmas campaign or an internal launch. Think charity single, starring your colleagues.
from £2,500
We find the musicians hiding in your organisation and turn them into a band, ready to record and perform.
from £3,000
A song written or adapted for your organisation, with your people on it. Ideal for anniversaries, launches and campaigns.
Coaching at your office, and support for your band and live sound at your own event or conference. Quoted per event.
Case study
Hays, the global recruitment business, asked us to bring together their most musical colleagues. We coached them into a band, recorded and filmed them at the studio, then went to London to support the band and help run live sound at their Christmas party, in front of thousands of their staff.
“Olly made the whole experience brilliant from start to finish. He put everyone at ease straight away, even those of us who hadn’t played in years, and the sessions were genuinely good fun. The quality of the recordings and videos is fantastic, and the team loved every minute of the process. We all got to live out our rock star dreams for a day, and now we have a video to prove it. The band has even carried on, and we’ve since played at another company event. I couldn’t recommend Sansom Studios more highly.”Tim McGrath, Chief Commercial Officer, Hays
How many people, what you would like to make, and any dates in mind.
Songs, format and timings, shaped around your group. You get a fixed price before you book.
Everyone is coached, everyone takes part, and we capture it properly in a real recording studio.
Finished audio, and video where included, ready to share with the team or the world.
A typical vocal team day. Timings flex to suit your group.
Not at all. Most people have never sung into a microphone before. Coaching is built in, and the confident and the cautious both get something out of it.
There are plenty of ways to be involved, from backing vocals and percussion to the control room. Nobody is put on the spot.
Up to 15 at the studio. For larger teams we can split the day into groups, or come to you.
Yes. We can coach on site, and support your band and sound at your own event. We have done this in London for a Christmas party of thousands.
Lunch is included, from Beckett’s Farm Shop just down the road: sandwiches, wraps, fruit and sharing platters. Just tell us about any dietary needs.
Wythall, on the south side of Birmingham, five minutes from junctions 3 and 4 of the M42, with parking on site.
Tell us a little about your team and what you have in mind. Olly will get back to you personally, usually within a day or two.
