WE KNOW YOU LOVE RECORD STORES!
Here’s a few reasons to visit them during this holiday season!

OVER THE RIVER
If you’re travelling this holiday season, use the PARTICIPATING STORE SEARCH on www.recordstoreday.com to find stores near Grandma’s house, whether she lives over the river, through the woods or right in the heart of the city.  


BLACK FRIDAY 

 

If you take away all the negative connotations, the day after Thanksgiving is really the start to a pretty nice season: the time to buy a little something for the ones you love, to show them that love. Record stores are bringing back the joy of that Friday and reminding you that you’ll find nothing but good gifts inside a record store. 

Starting 11/28 you’ll find Box Sets, Vinyl (in many formats and colors) CDs, Shirts, DVDs, Books, and even a cassette (WE ARE ALL GROOT!) that are exclusive to indie record stores. We’re proud of this year’s list and think there’s literally something on it for everyone to be excited about.

EVERY DAY IS... 
A good day to visit a record store. The special exclusive releases on our shiny list are great, but they are a mere fraction of the  great things to be found there day to day, and more comes in all the time.  And every week there are new special reasons to visit, too.  This week: 

Participating stores have a 3 song sampler (with a pre-order track not available digitally) from THE SMASHING PUMPKINS when you pre-order the new MONUMENTS TO AN ELEGY vinyl

Get a special playable flexi-postcard with pre-order of the MARIANNE FAITHFULL vinyl GIVE MY LOVE TO LONDON

Get an exclusive lithograph with purchase of the new DAVID BOWIE collection NOTHING HAS CHANGED

*all promotions while supplies last at participating stores
