RECORD STORE DAY UK LETS FANS BECOME ALBUM COVER STARS!

April 11, 2023

Ever wondered how your Record Store Day release would look? Well wonder no more!


Thanks to a collaboration with the team at Filmily, we’re excited to give you the chance to celebrate your local independent record store and become the cover star of your very own album cover.


Whether you’re at home, on the commute or digging in the crates of your favourite record store it’s never been easier to give your favourite indie shop a shoutout – all you have to do is FOLLOW THIS LINK, search for your local shop, and strike a pose in three… two… one… nailed it!



The result sees you seamlessly put on the cover of your own unique sleeve complete with your name in lights and a shout out to your local independent record store.

Keep an eye out for posters in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Brighton, Bristol and Liverpool featuring a QR code to take you straight to the cover shoot, too.


But the fun doesn’t stop once you’ve realised your potential as the new face of music. If you share your cover, using the hashtags #recordstoreday or #RSD23 on social media, you’ll not only be putting your favourite shop on the map – you’ll also be in with a chance of winning a pair of Bowers & Wilkins px7 headphones.


We’re really proud to give music fans and shops the chance to celebrate together ahead of Record Store Day and spread the word far and wide before the day itself on April 22nd, and can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with!
