Hello friends and Macca fanatics. “The Boys Of Dungeon Lane” is mere days away, and we can’t let the release of a new Paul McCartney record go by without a celebration!

Please join us on Friday, 5/29 as we play the album in full in shop + we’ll have fun some giveaways and even a prize for one lucky attendee whose name we’ll pull at the end of the party.

An important note, we will have a limited special SILVER vinyl variant of the new album (only available at these special listening parties), but quantities are EXTREMELY limited, so we will be limiting this variant to 1 COPY PER HOUSEHOLD so that we can send as many folks home with it as possible. This silver variant will be available beginning at 6:00pm on Friday, to attendees of the party.

We will also have copies on Indie Exclusive Pink vinyl, classic Black vinyl + CD!

The music begins at 6:00pm. Everyone’s invited, so come join us!

My neighbor’s forsythia is blooming again and it reminded me of this photo took of me in Seattle while I was recording Anything At All. April is here this coming week, and along with it come more shows! Very excited to announce that I will be celebrating Record Store Day (April 18) with two free in-store performances. 11am at & 3pm at . Then, on Thursday, April 23rd, , , my child Asa, and I are bringing a full band performance of tracks from Anything At All to Philadelphia as part home grown live show. It’s a FREE concert with registration (link in bio), celebrating WXPN Home Grown Live, a special vinyl-only release for Record Store Day. The in-studio recording of my song “Focus Ring” appears on the vinyl.

Can’t wait to see you.

Today marks the 5th anniversary of the opening of our shop here on Walnut St. It’s sometimes hard to believe how the time has flown, but when you’re surrounded by a wonderful community and fantastic friends that come through day in and day out and who love music as much as we do, it’s easy to lose track. We’re planning to look back and celebrate throughout the year, as we fondly reflect on this journey that began more than 10 years ago, and which has now officially gone down at 24A W. Walnut St. for 5 years. Our good friend and fellow impassioned listener George of GC3 Creative Arts created these record tote bags to mark today’s occasion.
