Record Store Day releases revealed

Today, we are excited to reveal the limited edition releases available next month to celebrate Record Store Day’s 10th anniversary. This is the start of all the fun!

The full list of over 500 records, which can be found HERE, will be making their way exclusively into independent record shops across the UK on Saturday 22nd April. The record labels have once again given us a set of special releases to work with. From this generous selection shops will each curate their own unique Record Store Day offerings. As always, there is a massive range of music on offer, across all genres, enticing more shops (and hopefully customers) than ever to get involved.

Below, the Record Store Day team of organisers have curated personal picks as a taster of what gems and rarities you can expect to find on the day.

Natasha Youngs of Resident Music in Brighton said “Shops all over the country will be supporting the releases with an array of events (live music, raffles, quizzes, giveaways and more), offering a day that truly celebrates the record shop culture that we all live and breathe every day. The UK’s independent record shops are a fiercely diverse set of businesses but this event brings us together to celebrate our differences.”

To mark the milestone of 10 years of Record Store Day, we have enlisted for the first time five official UK champions: Slaves, Anton Newcombe (Brian Jonestown Massacre), Kate Tempest, Kate Nash and Izzy Bizu.  They each have a very special release and video message to share ahead of the event which can be found HERE.

Moreover, as a birthday gift to record store fans, the first 20 people in each store queue will receive a limited edition Fred Perry collaboration record bag for the releases they find on the day. The bags have been designed for Fred Perry by UK based artists Suzi Kemp, Melvin Galapon, Jack Kimberley and David Sparshott for the 10th anniversary.

The party atmosphere will continue on the 22nd April when this year’s Record Store Day takes place.
