Jay Reatard - FREE INSTORE

Jay Reatard Free In-store Performance
Wednesday, August 19th - (time TBA)

We weren't really ready to announce this one yet, but if you know Jay... well, you'll already know he's got his own way of doing things. Whether he's releasing an album as extremely limited 7" singles, in numbers that got smaller as he got bigger (just to make everyone crazy) or getting massive love from NME, Spin, and Rolling Stone without having a solo full-length out yet. Pulling off the unexpected has become a bit of a hallmark for Jay, so while his announcement may have caught us a bit off-guard, the idea that he's going to bring his high energy, dirty-blues magic to our humble little stage is the most unexpected bit of the whole thing.

Jay will be releasing Watch Me Fall on August 4th, and we're going to open the guest list to folks who pre-buy it on vinyl or CD first, so if you'd like to join us for what will without a doubt be a memorable event please stop into the store or call (562.433.4996) and we'll get you all set up.
