Limaland has a bunch of music lovers, and they stopped by one local institution to add to their collection. Groamy CD's and Tapes welcomed everyone in for their National Record Store Day celebration. The line was wrapped around the business Saturday morning, with the first music enthusiast getting to the store three and a half hours before they were ready to open. Besides finding that hidden treasure inside the store, there were live bands from a variety of music genres playing outside. Since it was National Record Store Day, we asked Groamy about the resurgence of vinyl sales.
“Vinyl resurgence, for my store anyway, started about 10 years ago,” says Groamy. “It’s kind of funny because I have been doing this 40 years, I have never dreamed it get to the point where I am selling 20 records for every 1 CD. It’s to the point where a lot of young people are embracing cassettes. I am just glad the kids now the days are buying something physical.”
This is the 15th year that Groamy has celebrated Record Store Day.
