A lifetime dedicated to making music, enabling others to do so, and building

community though advocacy and activism


Located on Santa Fe's historic east side, just off of Canyon Road, The Kitchenette is Jono's cozy, state-of-the art "home" studio for recording and mixing. This facility is a full-service analog mixing and overdub room. It also features a comfortable upstairs bedroom, kitchen, and washer/dryer for visiting artists who want to stay, and create.



The former downtown Santa Fe location of The Kitchen Sink is now "Engine70 Studios"
