If you are a fan of free shows by some of your favorite bands, exclusive new music releases, and local independent record stores, Record Store Day 2012 is an all day event you can't miss.
Taking place on April 21, Long Beach residents can get the full Record Store Day experience at Fingerprints Music, in downtown Long Beach. For this day, they are opening at the early hour of 6 a.m., so be sure to set those alarms to get a jump on those exclusive releases and to get a front-row spot for performances.
Along with the exclusive albums and singles being released on Record Store Day, record stores across the country are welcoming artists and bands to play exclusive, free shows for their customers.
Fingerprints music is bringing three performances throughout the day, to their Long Beach record store. First up, Al Jardine of The Beach Boys is stopping by in the early afternoon, to perform an exclusive set. The next day he will be setting off on The Beach Boy's new concert tour. At 5 p.m., M. Ward will take the stage, celebrating the release of his newest full length solo album, called A Wasteland Companion, which comes out April 10. Not only known for his solo work, Ward is the "Him" in the popular band, She & Him, with actress Zooey Deschanel. Last, but not least, the band World Party are finishing up the day with their performance at 7:30 p.m.
For guaranteed admission to these awesome shows, be sure to RSVP now either in person or by calling Fingerprints for information. Get out there and support your local indie record store!
