Recording studio in Joshua Tree, California, United States
Sign for Rancho de la Luna
Rancho De La Luna is a recording studio in Joshua Tree, California that was founded in 1993 by Fred Drake and David Catching . After Drake's death in 2002, the studio was operated by David Catching and Drake's collaborators Tony Mason , Ted Quinn , Dean Chamberlain , Billy Bizeau and Fred Burke until 2004.[1]
The studio is cited as everything in it being "weird and wonderful but functional",[2] Fred Drake and David Catching .[3]
It is most well known for being the home of the Desert Sessions . (including sessions with Josh Homme , Alain Johannes , Natasha Shneider , Dean Ween , Twiggy Ramirez , Joey Castillo , Pete Stahl , Mario Lalli , Troy van Leeuwen , Nick Oliveri , Brant Bjork , Chris Goss , Ben Shepherd , Alfredo Hernandez , David Catching , Brian O'Connor , Jesse Hughes )[4] [5] [6] [7]
According to Catching: "There is something about this studio. Everyone that's been here and recorded here, including me, feels it, so there is something to it. Maybe it's just all the love that's accumulated here from over the years. People do freak out about the drum room: many say it's the best drum sound they have ever gotten—even the engineers."[8]
Catching has talked about the special nature of the studio in multiple sources.[9] [10] [11] [12]
Alain Johannes explains:『Everything is the opposite of a, quote-unquote, professional studio: 'What is this – are you sure it's a mic? It looks like a grenade…' You plug it in… find out if it goes off.』

Rancho De La Luna Mezcal [ edit ]
In 2016, David Catching and Bingo Richey released a signature brand of Mezcal named after the studio. Built, in part, off of the "consumption" of liquor at the studio for sessions.[15] [16] [17]
Rancho De La Luna in other media [ edit ]
The studio was also the focus of the fifth episode of the Foo Fighters Sonic Highways series [18]
