    Teresa Knox on saving The Church Studio and the legacy of Leon Russell and the Tulsa Sound

    When Teresa Knox bought The Church Studio in 2016, she knew it needed a lot of work – but had never actually been inside the building to see just how much work. In this episode of One More Thing, Nathan Thompson talks to Knox about restoring one of Tulsa's most important music landmarks, preserving the legacy of Leon Russell and Shelter Records, and why people from around the world travel to Tulsa to experience The Church Studio. Knox discusses what it was like walking into the building for the first time, the more than six-year effort to bring The Church Studio back to life, and how the historic church has evolved into a recording studio, music venue, educational resource, and community gathering place. The conversation also explores the Tulsa Sound, the artists who helped shape it, and why the future of music in the age of artificial intelligence is something she thinks about a lot.
