On April 19, CJSF 90.1 FM in collaboration with CiTR 101.9 FM will be broadcasting live from Record Store Day. Both stations will be at record stores all around Vancouver broadcasting live performances and interviews with participating artists. 

Tune in to hear bands playing at Neptoon Records, Red Cat Records, Beat Street Records, and other stores around Vancouver! The CJSF and CiTR special broadcast for the Record Store Day will start at 12pm. Featured record store events include local bands and DJ’s playing for free. There will also be lots of limited edition album releases and special sale items.

Record Store Day started in 2007 at a meeting of independent record store owners and employees in order to celebrate and honor record store culture and independent music. As for now, it is an international holiday celebrated by many countries including UK, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France and Canada.

Record Store Day is an important event for Vancouver's community of music lovers. Every year, local bands play free shows at record stores around town, and various record stores have special discounts happening at the venues.
