Two locations - Hobart & Michigan City OPEN DAILY
We have two awesome locations - each with their own unique features
I am excited to have two one-of-a-kind record / concert hall shops in Northwest Indiana. I have been in the music industry for over 40 years.
I've been a music columnist, host of various live radio programs, owning and managing my own entertainment business, and operated my own music entertainment newspaper.
I welcome you to stop by both stores in downtown Hobart Indiana and Mid-Town Michigan City.
You Never know Who is going to drop by the shop!
