RSD 2020 announcement

RECORD STORE DAY ANNOUNCEMENT 2pm TODAY
Record Store Day 2020 is social distancing! Record Store Day releases are to be split across 3 dates , it has had to adapt to fit into this different place to reflect the current situation.
This means of course that Record Store Day will no longer be taking place on June 20th.
Instead, the titles on the RSD 2020 official list will be available from independent record shops ONLY on one of the three following RSD DROP Dates, Saturday 29th August, Saturday 26th September and Saturday 24th October. A new version of The List with assigned release dates will be launched on 1st June and updates will be found on recordstoreday.co.uk and the RSD social media accounts and we will advise on our situation/participation nearer the time.The focus of these three RSD Drop dates is on supporting those stores that reopen, as well as the artists, labels, distribution and every other business behind the scenes making record stores work.This will be NOT be RSD as we know it, more focus on the exciting releases out on the DROP dates.Nothing in these strange times is set in stone so additional information as and when we have it.
