Today was our final day of sales here at Sam Ash Raleigh. It’s been crazy these past few months. Thank you so much to everyone who has supported us over the years. We will miss this place. I loved it dearly, and I am so thankful for all the memories made in this building over the past 20 years- even if I personally wasn’t a part of all of them.

We had a good run. I loved this place, I love these people. I am so thankful for them.

Goodnight Raleigh, and for the last time, thank you for everything.

Signing off.

-Taylor ❤️

Hi Raleigh. I’m sure you have all heard, but Sam Ash Music is closing its doors. Our store closing sale began today, and we will be open until mid-end July. It’s a sad time for everyone, but we cannot help but think about all the amazing memories made in this building. Whether it was the customers or associates, it has been 20 years full of love for music.

We have already received an incredible amount of love from the community, and we are so thankful. Thank you for supporting us all these years, it means more than you know.

Please come down and see us while you still can, we are still happy to help, and will do everything we can to help you on your musical journey!

Thank you, Raleigh. We love you.

-Taylor Walker, General Manager

We lost a titan in the music industry on September 16th. The world feels more empty without you. Rest in peace, Sammy. Our condolences, and all the love to the Ash family ❤️🎸
