Sept. 3: New music from Justin Vernon, and we've got the goods

Local Store Shopkeep  |

On September 3, Justin Vernon's much ballyhooed side project Volcano Choir (which seems like its becoming a little more than a side project at this point) will release its second album – Repave (read more here). And lucky for you, The Local Store will have plenty of copies on hand – we'll have both the CD and the really cool limited-edition clear vinyl. To celebrate, we're offering some special deals and fun stuff. Like what? Like this:

20% OFF all releases from Volcano Choir band members when you buy the new record. This means any stock we have from Bon Iver, Shouting Matches, Collections of Colonies of Bees, and GAYNGS – CDs or vinyl – all of it can be had for 20% off. Hell, we'll even include the Memorial High School Jazz CD featuring Justin Vernon and some old Mt. Vernon discs we've got banging around.

PLUS! We'll be running a special store-wide sale – buy the new Volcano Choir album on CD or vinyl and you’ll get 15% OFF any other single item in the store.

We've also got a very limited number of posters available to the first people buying Repave on vinyl. And – this is cool – we'll be screening Volcano Choir videos and the mini-documentary about Repave in the Volume One Gallery, all day long. It's really good stuff. Plus, of course we'll be playing the new record in the store all day too.

For those who enjoy new music with a side of luscious cake, we're having Eau Claire's Dessert First develop top secret Volcano Cupcakes.  We're also developing a special celebratory high five – the "Volcano Five" – which is gonna rock your world.

You can also pre-order the CD and the vinyl online.
(If that's your thing.)
