The move will enable Abbey Road’s education programme to accommodate its growing student base.
Angel Studios, famous for Grammy-winning albums from Adele and Sam Smith, closed its doors last year after 40 years in the business.
The relocation of the Abbey Road Institute to the historic Grade II listed studio building means that its musical legacy will continue.
“The move into Angel Studios brings many possibilities for our school, our students and our international Abbey Road Institute family, enabling us to start our next chapter,” said Luca Barassi, CEO of Abbey Road Institute. “The history and relevance of Angel and the impressive studio space and building full of character, will all play a part in the next stage of Abbey Road Institute’s evolution.”
