Heard the news? MWB Studios just made the front page of the Mississippi Business Journal's latest issue. Thank you, MBJ, for telling the story of our recording spot—from its warm, rich, analog past to its cool, creative (and honestly, still a bit analog) present. And, huge thanks to all the bands, artists, clients, engineers, and podcasters already busy making incredible noise with us. Much more to come. Book your project at [email protected].

We know the feeling: After Tuesday Jazz Night at Hal and Mal’s, you’re still jumpin’ for live sounds and a few more of those strange, between-set stories that only Raphael can tell.

But there is a cure: Starting Tuesday, July 14, just wander a few doors down and step inside MWB Studios for a new music/comedy/creativity/oddity show. And Raphael Semmes is our featured guest for this first one, so the strange but true tales will be on tap and flowing.

As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, we're proud to share a spot we created for America250 Mississippi, offering a distinctly Mississippi take on life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Happy Fourth of July from all of us at Maris, West & Baker.

The problem: An important incoming call from the state department of health was simply being swiped away. The solution: Using dynamic animation and voice over, this spot cuts through the clutter—letting everyone know that when you see it’s the Mississippi Health Survey, take the call. Your health is on the line.

When it comes to that spark, that burning fire of inspiration, there’s no better time to fan the flame than on National Creativity Day! Get fueled by the arts and celebrate the ingenuity and imagination that bind us together. Visit that art gallery, watch your favorite movie, hear the voices of yesterday and tomorrow, and then add your own to the mix. It’s a day for painting, drawing, writing, designing, composing, playing, and everything else in between. Whether you’re letting your talent shine or starting a brand new hobby, let's get busy! What will you create?

At a time when it seems that every other call is either spam or a scam, how do you get people to answer? You create a spot letting them know that this one’s for real: A real person will ask a few quick questions, your answers will stay confidential and help shape health programs across the state. Take the call.
