Studio in the Country is a recording studio located at 21443 Hwy 436 in Washington Parish, Louisiana.

The studio has been in operation since 1972. It was conceived and originally owned by recording engineer William S.

Construction and design was overseen by Bleu Evans with significant contributions by Tom Hidley of Westlake Audio,^[2] George Augspurger, Lee Peterzell, Tom Knight and Ron Balmer. Eugene Foster bought the studio in 1979, and later sold it in 1997 to current owner Debra Farmer. Ben Mumphrey has been the studio's general manager and chief engineer since 2007.
