Record Store Day has been changed again. It was originally scheduled for April 18th but that was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. The new date was then set for June 20th, but now that has changed as well.
Record Store Day is now scheduled to be celebrated with special, properly distanced release dates on Saturdays in August, September and October.
According to the Record Store Day website:
“[Record Store Day] will look very different this year, but supporting indie record stores may be more important than ever. We don’t know what sort of rules will be in place, or what sort of gatherings people will be in the mood for this year, so we’re focusing on the music and getting the really great titles on the RSD Official List this year into the stores and into your hands, in the most financially and socially responsible way.”
The titles on the Record Store Day 2020 Official List, launched on March 5th, will be released at participating record stores on one of the three RSD Drops: August 29th, September 26th, and October 24th. The new version of The List, with newly assigned RSD Drops dates will be available on June 1st.
