RECORD STORE DAY 2026

Saturday, April 18

NEW LOCATION: 315 East South Street 60098

The list is out. And that’s the big news right now.

Record Store Day is the biggest day of the year for indie record shops, and 2026 is no different... around 350 special titles are dropping...exclusive to independent record stores and only available in person on Record Store Day. These are the kinds of releases that tend to matter: collectible, meaningful, and genuinely great listens.

Here’s how you help shape what our shop looks like on RSD:

Come into the shop before Feb 12 to mark up the list.

Put a tally mark next to the records you’re hoping to score.

We order everything... but we go heavy on what we think YOU want, and this is how you tell us. Participate!

As for the day itself: more details are coming, but we are committed to an experience that feels good for everyone. Yes, some folks will line up overnight and the first hour will be busy, but we want Record Store Day to be exciting, not stressful.

New-shop perks we’re VERY excited about:

Bathrooms open to the public about an hour before doors open

(Because the eternal RSD question is: how do you pee when you’re in line?)

A clean, organized queue system so everyone shops in the exact order they arrived; no rushing, no chaos, no weird energy

Live music, treats, free goodies...it's gonna be a whole THING.

We hope you’re excited.

We hope you’ll come mark the list.

And we hope you’ll spend Record Store Day with us in our new space.
