record shops are great, let's have a day to celebrate them!

Well it's been a bit quiet on this 'ere blog for a while but we are back to let you know that we are taking part in International Record Store Day for the second year running. Last year was a great success and lots of fun, this year looks to be the same. We'll be hosting DJ's instore and drinking some beer, we might even cook some chicken up for you again. Look out for further details closer to the time. For now all you need to know is that it takes place on Saturday 18th April.

Highrise Clothing

Be sure to check out www.highriseclothing.com for a great range of music related T-Shirts.

They are an independent clothing label with a huge love for music. Based in Bristol, they are not about following fashions or trends. Their philosophy is simple: 'Good designs on the highest quality t-shirts'. We like.

Saturday 19th April is National Record Store day in the USA - Rooted has gone GLOBAL to celebrate this special day and will be dishing up free Beer and Chicken from 2pm, with all purchases over £20.00 Pimp Pimp Pimp

We believe it is right to celebrate the role that record stores play in the cultural life of local communities, especially here in Bristol now that we have very few! Record shops are an international community and platform where music has an outlet and an opportunity to grow over the long term, in a way that sincerely connects with community and culture.

In the Shop all afternoon will be King Tubbys Box from Downbeat Melody Soundsystem playing the Essential selections - sets from Peverelist; Puffin Jack & Steve Rice
