Susan Maida

Studio Manager 

A life-long entrepreneur, successful businesswoman and musician, Susan's dream of owning and running a recording studio was long coming, but she embraces it with a fervor. Susan knows that people reach their greatest potential when they're allowed to be creative in a relaxed, secure and supportive atmosphere. Her compassion and patience with developing musicians is boundless.

Susan speaks both Spanish and English fluently. She runs the tracking studio with ease and efficiency and can put even the most nervous musicians at ease with her wry wit and a smooth cocktail. When you record at Bent String Studios, you'll always feel at home and that's because of Susan 

As a visionary and entrepreneur, Susan is also putting together a non-profit promotional company to help talented young musicians from the Tampa Bay area get their music heard and sold.
