Record Store Day 2020 will move from April to June in response to the coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak pandemic. The annual event supporting independent record stores will now be held on June 20.
Record Store Day 2020 was originally scheduled for April 18. RSD 2020 titles include releases by the Grateful Dead, Jerry Garica, Widespread Panic, Miles Davis, Nick Mason’s Saucerful Of Secrets, David Bowie, John Prine, The Rolling Stones, Warren Zevon, Hiss Golden Messenger and Brittany Howard among others. The late Neal Casal’s solo album Fade Away Diamond Time will also be given a limited regional release. Brandi Carlile and her band mates, “the twins” Phil Hanseroth and Tim Hanseroth, will serve as Record Store Day 2020 ambassadors.
The full list of Record Store Day 2020 releases and participating stores is available at the official website. Read the message regarding the postponement below:
We’ve decided that the best of all possible moves is to change the date of Record Store Day this year to Saturday, June 20.
We think this gives stores around the world the best chance to have a profitable, successful Record Store Day, while taking into consideration the recommendations of doctors, scientists, the World Health Organization, Centers for Disease Control, and the need to be good citizens of both local and worldwide communities.
We’re working with all of our partners and our stores to make this change as smooth as possible for everyone who participates in Record Store Day: customers, record stores, artists, labels and more. Record Store Day is everywhere and we want to hold our party when everyone can gather around safely to celebrate life, art, music and the culture of the indie record store.
