Record Store Day is this Saturday, April 22nd! It's the biggest day of the year for independent record stores. This is the day exclusive titles - often pressed in very limited quantities - are offered for sale at indie brick-and-mortar stores only. These titles are not available online and are not available from big box stores. Any remaining inventory after Saturday will be posted for sale online.
We celebrate Bob Wills birthday, March 6 and honor him everyday with photos on the walls at Record Town. Bob Wills is one of the originators and considered the King of Western Swing. Even after almost 80 years, Bob Wills influence is still greatly felt throughout the music world, and his traditions carry on.
Meet Garrett T. Capps and NASA Country - a unique blend of honky-tonk, hippy country, Kraftwerk and conjunto. It works. He has developed a fresh new sound that is a must hear.
Record Town opened for business on February 1, 1957 in Fort Worth, Texas. Kathleen and Sumter Bruton II decided to open a record store because of their deep love and knowledge of music.
