Record collectors, be sure to mark your calendars. Tiger Records is celebrating Record Store Day on April 12. The event brings music fans and record collectors together by celebrating their love for physical media while supporting independent record stores.
Tiger Records owner James Siboni sees Record Store Day as more than just a holiday. He sees it as a day to bring the music and vinyl community together and celebrate new exclusive releases to add to their collection. “It’s a day where all sorts of collectors from different corners of vinyl culture can come together. There’s a lot of camaraderie, especially among people in the line looking out for each other,” said Siboni.
This year’s Record Store Day will be extra special. Rapper and country artist Post Malone will be the 2025 Record Store Day ambassador. Tiger Records will have a wide variety of record store day titles to choose from at the store. The exact number of copies and specific titles remains uncertain. While the record store can request what records to have in stock, team members of Record Store Day will determine the allocations of records to the shop, which means the shop won’t know what will be available until closer to the event.
Whether you’re a new or serious collector looking for rare records to collect or want to be there for the Record Store Day experience, Tiger Records is the place to be. Come out and celebrate this special event and support the independent record store on April 12!
