Record Store Day is today, Saturday, April 23rd.

This holiday has been celebrated since 2007 when people come together to recognize the culture of locally owned record shops across the nation. There are still plenty of stores that keep the culture alive around Middle Tennessee.

Two sisters brought the joy of flipping through vinyl to our hometown, located in the Factory at Franklin in Franklin, TN. All of our used vinyl is cleaned on a professional VPI cleaning machine, play-graded, and then packaged in a resealable sleeve to protect the sleeve and the wax. Fresh used arrivals go out daily and New vinyl comes in once or twice a week. We also take care of any special order requests as well.
