BREAKING! RECORD STORE DAY 2020 MOVED TO JUNE 20

March 13, 2020 By Sam Stone 1 Comment

As the music world continues to feel the ramifications of the global COVID-19 pandemic, it's been announced that Record Store Day 2020 will be postponed to June 20th.  This follows meetings with store owners and distributors where it was decided that the delay would be in the best interests of customers and stores worldwide.

"We think this gives stores around the world the best chance to have a profitable, successful Record Store Day," representatives said in a statement, "while taking into consideration the recommendations of doctors, scientists, the World Health Organization, Centers for Disease Control, and the need to be good citizens of both local and worldwide communities.

"We're working with all of our partners and our stores to make this change as smooth as possible for everyone who participates in Record Store Day: customers, record stores, artists, labels and more. Record Store Day is everywhere and we want to hold our party when everyone can gather around safely to celebrate life, art, music and the culture of the indie record store."

We'll keep you posted with more updates as they become available.

Sam Stone has been obsessed with catalog music ever since his folks gave him a Contours best-of collection for his fourth birthday. He quickly began to learn all he could about rock and roll history and beyond, a passion that continues to this day. Sam followed his love for music to the classroom, earning a B.A. from Towson University in Electronic Media and Film, concentrating on radio and audio production, as well as an M.A. in Audio Arts from Syracuse University. He has put his knowledge and skills to work at prominent reissue labels and is excited to bring his perspectives on catalog music to a broader audience. When he’s not writing for The Second Disc, Sam can be found researching about music, talking about Joni Mitchell’s career, and adding another box set to his Amazon wish list.

    I was just thinking about RSD and this COVID-19 crisis. Good decision to move it to June. Hopefully we are over the worst of it by then.
