Sufjan Stevens’ new album Carrie & Lowell is now available at The Record Exchange on CD and vinyl!
Says Pitchfork, “This record is a return to the spare folk of Seven Swans, but with a decade’s worth of honing and exploration packed into it. It already feels like his most classic and pure effort.”
Lower Dens’ new album Escape from Evil is now available at The Record Exchange on CD and vinyl!
Says the Guardian of the band’s third album, “Hunter sounds like a hybrid of Annie Lennox and Beach House’s Victoria Legrand on a collection of songs that take a welcome detour away from Nootropics’s exploration of transhumanism and instead focus on simpler matters of the heart.”
It’s New Release Tuesday, and it’s also Vinyl Tuesday — customers receive up to $5 in used vinyl* with every $25 in new vinyl purchased all day long every Tuesday!

Today’s Record Exchange Secret Treefort In-store is …
Posse will perform at 2 p.m. TODAY at The Record Exchange, 1105 W. Idaho St. in Downtown Boise. As always, this Record Exchange in-store event is free and all ages — and you don’t need a Treefort pass to attend (but you should get one anyway).
ABOUT POSSE
Posse is Sacha Maxim, Paul Wittmann-Todd and Jon Salzman. Neither slick nor intentionally rough, Posse’s music is meant to be a degraded reflection of their optimism, their hopelessness, their limitations, filtered through their abilities and interests.
Their songs are blankets designed with soft colors and graceful edges, made to lay over pits of anger and disappointment. They leap from mercurial, spacious leads to malevolent cross-eyed solos. The rhythm guitar drifts and phases while the bass tiptoes atop the drums.
Posse’s favorite music includes Galaxie 500, Suicide, and Yo La Tengo. Delay by Boss and Akai. Distortion and fuzz provided by Rivera, ZVex and Ibanez.
FULL SECRET TREEFORT IN-STORE SCHEDULE
Wednesday, March 25, 7pm — Buxton
