Best place for new vinyl in town imo. Helpful clerks. Balanced selection. Stocks seasonal records heavy on acts visiting town which is a nice touch

Only complaint is that I have yet to meet this dog that everyone keeps talking about?! Best part is they don’t judge you on your music choices. They were really respectful with the craze around Taylor Swift’s RSD exclusive vinyl when I saw some other stores throwing shade. Supporting local is always a way better deal than buying from big box stores. Much rather spend a few more bucks here than my money going to some big CEO.

Incredible selection of new vinyl. I can't recall ever leaving empty-handed. Grab a drink and flip through the bins. You can't go wrong with that. The cherries on top are the occasional shows that Luke is able to put on here and at Vinyl Cup. We have found and met some incredible artists through this place.

I need to update my previous rating. I was initially underwhelmed by the selection, but after repeated return trips I’ve realized that Marv’s selection is always rotating. Also, you’d be surprised at some of the absolute gems I’ve found here. All in all this is a great little record store in a cool part of town—it’s always enjoyable to stop in and browse. The employees are always very nice and helpful as well. If new vinyl is your thing, there’s nowhere better to start digging.

We originally wanted to stop by this local record shop cause they sometimes have a dog. No dog today, but we still had a great time. The records are well organized and even had separate sections for new releases and the upcoming Hinterland festival (which is awesome). The employee was very friendly and great to talk about music with. We will definitely be back and will check out their sister shop too.
