Exclusive Releases: Click here for a list of the official releases. You can download this form and use as a checklist for your RSD needs!

Slowtrain Lounge: 2011's Slowtrain Lounge will be hosted by the Salt Lake City Film Festival! They'll be serving up delicious, ice-cold, locally-brewed Bohemian (we are Brozeks after all) beer. Yum and fun! A good portion of all the money made in the Lounge will go to support the wonderful works of the Salt Lake City Film Festival. We are so proud to partner with them and support the great work they do for film in SLC.

Gallery Stroll: We'll be open late drinking Bohemian beer as we try to spy RSD Elves setting up exclusive releases in our racks. Let's make it a holiday tradition like pie and mistletoe! Instead it will be delicious beer and limited edition music. Join us for the fun and know that your beer purchases support great art in SLC.

Giving Back: Slowtrain is proud to partner with Breathe Utah, Salt Lake City Film Festival, and Local First Utah throughout Record Store Day. We're happy to support these incredible local non-profits and we hope you'll give them your support too!

Food, Craft, Music Fair: We're turning our back parking lot into a mini-fair for this year's RSD festivities. We'll have excellent booths set up from Craft Lake City artists selling their wares. You can support local business, local music, and local art just by attending RSD. Breath Utah will be providing you shoppers with an appetite some yummy food - and your purchases will go towards an excellent cause...helping to clean up our nasty Utah air. We'll have live music, discount records and CDs, and just lots of fun. Plus we'll have fun and interactive booths from Local First, Slug Magazine, and others! It's going to be a BLAST!

T-shirts and Totes: This year we are PROUD to offer an new Slowtrain t-shirt and LP totes just in time for RSD. This design was made just for us by the incredible musician and artist, Owen Ashworth, from Casiotone for the Painfully Alone, aka, Advance Base. We'll be selling these items throughout the year and a portion of the proceeds will go to Spy Hop Productions.
