For the second year in a row, Music Matters is delighted to
support and celebrate independent record stores and the unique
contribution made by indie outlets in distributing exciting and
high quality music on the high street.
The limited edition badges will be a real collector's item for any
fan of The Horrors - but we're leaving it up to you to decide who
the lucky recipients will be!
Faris told us why he is supporting Record Store Day:
"I've discovered so much music through independent record shops,
particularly Rough Trade. It's not the same experience buying
records on the internet. I've always thought Record Store Day was
such a great idea, limited 7"s from musicians who share a love of
making actual records."
Included in this pack is:
• 10 limited edition Music Matters badges designed by Faris
Badwan
It's up to you how you distribute the badges. You might like
to hold a competition in
store
or give them to the first 10 customers of the day.
• A bespoke Music Matters/Record Store Day poster
We've
created a poster especially for Record Store Day. To download
and
print the poster for your store, go to http://tellus.whymusicmatters.org/rsd-poster.
Feel free to post it on Facebook, Twitter and your own website
- we will be!
