Road Records to Close

Sad news today as Road Records has announced it will be closing its doors in 2-3 weeks. The shop, which supported many independant Irish artists cited several reasons for its close but in the end they just weren't making enough money to support the shop and to live on.

Despite its 11 year run, I only discovered the shop properly in the last year and like many others I feel like I didn't visit it enough or purchase enough to do my part in keeping it open. Even if all you can do is pop in to say thanks, try make an effort to visit this shop which provided a friendly, helpful service provided by people who really care about music.
