The studio was named in honor of Bergman’s grandmother, Stella, his best friend and greatest supporter. The new space is outfitted with world-class gear and is already drawing a cross-genre client list including Rock & Roll Hall of Famer John Oates, Mod Sun, Bad Wolves, Christian French, Jonah Marais of Why Don’t We, Logan Henderson of Big Time Rush, Spencer Sutherland and more.

Co-founder Bergman is a classically trained pianist, writer, and producer, while Keaton Stromberg is a force behind the console, and Wesley Stromberg is a lauded melody-and-lyric writer. The brothers resume’ includes a stint as finalists on The X Factor, a Top 10 Billboard debut, and writing and production credits alongside Max Martin, Jack Antonoff and Julian Bunetta.

“The artist is the most important part. That is the center of the music industry, and our only job is to help bring the artist’s vision to life,” says Bergman.

The company staged the first annual Stella Fest this past July in Nashville, with a bill that included Christian French, Emblem3, Your Neighbors and 10 other Stella-affiliated acts, drawing thousands of attendees. The company’s Stella Sessions also puts an artist in front of the cameras once a month for a live-in-studio performance that gets cut, filmed and released to the world. Stella Live Nights turns the studio into an intimate venue every few months, stacking momentum toward the next festival.
