For the record, Concorde in Perth is hosting an indie day

Music lovers in Perth in Kinross are set to descend on the region’s most iconic shop this weekend.

Saturday, April 13 will be lucky for many shoppers when the 12th annual Record Store Day takes place.

And once again the place to be will be Concorde Music Shop on Scott Street in Perth.

Concorde, managed by Garry Smith, will be one of around 240 independent record shops taking part in the celebrations which unites music lovers and vinyl fans in every corner of the UK.

Record Store Day was set up in 2007 to champion the culture of the record store.

Twelve years later it is still going strong as it celebrates not only the record shops that have stood the test of time, but also the new generation of shops who have just opened their doors.

Hundreds of limited edition vinyl releases will be created exclusively for the occasion.

Concorde will be open from 8am until 5pm on the day.

In previous years, music lovers have been known to queue up all night to get their hands on the exclusive releases.

Concorde is Scotland’s oldest surviving record store, and it celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2017.
