I think this is really cool of CCP. Between their urban revitilization projects, Aurora (and brining movie productions to Lancaster County), Questionable Entertainment, Think Loud, support for the arts, support of local bands, The Gracious Few, Live, support of charities, and participation in seminars for upstart musicians and music entrepreneurs (have I missed anything?), CCP has really established a proven track record of caring about their community and truly believing in the possibility of growth and potential in the York and Lancaster area. They have stayed in the area. They invest in the area. They support the area. And they put their money where their mouth is.

The idea of this studio seems like a cool idea for a creative incubator where local bands or out of area bands can come to York, stay there and create music there, all in one spot. Like a tourist industry, when artists come to stay and work in York, it will bring money to the region, which will in turn support restaurants, gas stations, etc. with the multiplier effect. I am sure that there is municipal grants and tax credits involved and I think that it is probably a smart business decision. I bet it is well-structured, with investors beyond CCP, and the risk and recourse to the investors is probably small if anything. It probably represents vertical integration - in the sense that CCP can use the studio for their own recording, rather than spend money elsewhere to do it.

This is also probably a move that should send a message to Live fans that CCP are serious about recording music and staying relevant in the recording industry for the long haul.
