For the past decade, brick and mortar record stores have been shuttering up and down the coast because of the growing popularity of digital music (heck even I finally stopped by CDs when I got my IPhone at Christmas), there’s also competition from big-box stores, and the internet stores.
I was surprised when the last occupant of the southwest corner of Broad and Chestnut Street, Tower Records closed, that a FYE record store took it’s place. Now after about a decade of occupying the spot, FYE is closing.
I spoke with a representative there today and the last day for the store to be operating is August 31, 2016. Right now you can save 20% to 50% off merchandise. Also on July 24 at 2PM Moose Blood will be doing an in store concert, meet & greet.
