Help Our Record Store Rebuild After Theft

Donation protected
We are a Mom and Pop Record Store that thrives on the support of our local customers and the record shows we travel for. Over the years, we've poured our hearts into making our shop the number one record store in the Shenandoah Valley for four years in a row. It’s been a journey filled with hard work, late nights, and a deep love for music and our community.

This weekend, we traveled to New Jersey for a record show, loading up our van with 45 crates of our best records and all the tables and equipment we use for shows. We stopped in Newark for the night, but when we woke up, our van—and everything inside it—was gone. In a single night, we lost everything we’ve worked so hard to build. The loss is overwhelming, and it’s hard to put into words how devastated we feel.

The funds raised here will help us buy new inventory to replace what was stolen and, if possible, help us get a vehicle so we can continue traveling to shows and serving our community. Every dollar we make goes right back into the shop, and right now, we’re heartbroken and in need of help. We’re so grateful for any support you can give to help us rebuild and keep the music alive in the Shenandoah Valley. Thank you for believing in us and standing by our side during this difficult time.
