Record Store Day is 4/18/09
THE EVENT ANNOUNCES EXCLUSIVE PRODUCT FROM A VAST ARRAY OF ARTISTSRECORD STORE DAY TO RUN COACHELLA'S ON-SITE MUSIC STORE
The organizers of Record Store Day have been happily overwhelmed by a steady
flurry of support and activity from artists, record labels and retailers
wishing to participate in the annual event in salutation of the independent
music store. This year Record Store Day is set to feature a number of
exciting new products made especially for the event from such well-known
artists as Radiohead, Wilco, Tom Waits and Lucinda Williams and the Flight
of the Conchords, just to name a few.
Wilco plan to release their upcoming DVD as an exclusive release to indie
stores and on the band's website on Record Store Day. The group's Jeff
Tweedy told Billboard Magazine in a recent interview, "Even if I wasn't in a
band, I'd still support Record Store Day. It's a great thing and I'm glad we
could do something special with them for our DVD."
The Decemberists will release a Record Store Day 7" as well. The band's
Colin Meloy adds, "I don't know what I would do without indie record stores.
Growing up in a town without them, I can tell you that it's no fun to shop
for indie records at chain box stores."
You can also expect a slew of vinyl releases from Radiohead, My Morning
Jacket who will release a CD as well as limited run double 10" vinyl
recorded live in Louisville at record store Ear X-tacy.
Also expected are classic split 7" releases from Tom Waits and Lucinda
Williams who will issue a double 7" of live tracks from Atlanta and
Edinburgh, as well as Sonic Youth exclusive Record Store Day split singles
with Beck and Jay Reatard.
Other indie rock elder statesmen the Jesus Lizard will release a special
package to include nine 7" singles and Guided By Voices will re-release
their Hold On Hope LP, with three bonus tracks.
And in the "legends" category, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen
will all release RSD exclusive 7" singles. Def Jam also plans to release a 4
LP gatefold history of the label, the physical version of which will be for
indies only.
Fans can expect more unique Record Store Day pieces from a diverse array of
artists such as Metric, Slipknot, Jane's Addiction, The Smiths, the Stooges,
MC5, Modest Mouse, Slayer, Rivers Cuomo, the Black Kids, Brandi Carlile,
Taking Back Sunday, among many others.
In addition, Coachella, the world-renowned annual music festival set to take
place on April 17-19 in Indio, California, has chosen Record Store Day to
run the event's popular on-site record store, with management provided by
popular Southwest-based indie retailer, Zia Record Exchange. The on-site
Coachella store, previously operated by Virgin, is noted for its high
profile foot traffic and good vibe.
Record Store Day, April 18, 2009, coincidentally falls smack in the middle
of the dazzling desert-set festival. Promoted by GoldenVoice, Coachella 2009
boasts such an eclectic mix of big name headliners as Paul McCartney, Amy
Winehouse, My Bloody Valentine, Public Enemy, TV On The Radio, The Cure, The
Hold Steady, Leonard Cohen, Morrissey, Jenny Lewis, Franz Ferdinand as well
as many others sure to be stopping by the Record Store Day site to peruse
the shelves for records and memorabilia and hang with their fans between
sets.
A number of artists performing at this year's Coachella will release product
expressly for Record Store Day. Among them, Mastodon who will release "Crack
The Skye" on 180 gram vinyl to include an extra 7" single and lyric sheet,
Jenny Lewis will issue a split 7" with none other than Elvis Costello, and
Black Keys will release a special RSD split 7" with the Flaming Lips.
