We're opening our doors for Record Store Day this Saturday, April 23rd for one day only! Our retail space is not technically open yet and it's still a construction site, but if you're in the area we'll be at the new HQ working on the space & slinging remaining Raid The Archive Mystery Sets and a few other random items. Come take a look, say hello, and pick something up when you're out and about record shopping this Saturday!
Bridge Nine Records
Saturday, April 23rd: 10am till 5pm!
282 Rantoul Street, Beverly, MA 01915
Getting here:
Beverly is a 35-minute drive from Boston and is located right next to Salem. Meter spots are available along Rantoul Street and the first 20 minutes are FREE
We are a 5-minute walk from the Beverly commuter rail stop on the Newburyport/Rockport line.
Plus there are 4 record stores within 4 miles of us...
SOUNDTRACKS
Shop owner DJ 7L combines his interests of Music and Film with a handpicked selection of records both new & used at his new shop, Soundtracks, which is located just up the street from us at 265 Cabot St in Beverly. For Record Store Day, the Hi DJ Podcast will be live with special guests, live music, prizes and an in-store pop-up with Fresh Vintage. Their events take place from 12-4 pm.
RESIDENCY RECORDS
Check out the new Residency Records location at 7 1/2 Church St in Salem. Owner Breaux Silcio's new space is about 5 times larger than his original space near the Satanic Temple, where the store operated for the last 4 years, and is now one of the largest independent record stores in Massachusetts. For Record Store Day, the store opens at 9 am with plenty of RSD exclusives and will be offering 10% off all used inventory.
THE RECORD EXCHANGE
The Record Exchange is one of the oldest used brick & mortar record stores in the United States, founded in Salem in 1974. They'll be open from 10 am - 5 pm and will have a large, varied selection of RSD special limited edition exclusive vinyl, plus a sale bin of previous years' RSD titles. Read more about their RSD event here.
BEVERLY COIN & ESTATE SHOP
Don't let the name fool you - this is where you go to find rare, vintage vinyl and I'm probably breaking an unwritten rule of the Northshore by sharing this hidden gem of a shop. Beverly Coin is located just up the street from us at 38 Rantoul St and you could easily spend hours finding gold here. Happy hunting!
