Third Man Records is celebrating this year’s Record Store Day with twice as many record stores (and therefore, twice as many records for sale). Third Man will be hosting festivities at their headquarters in Nashville, TN, as well as at their poolside pop-up shop which is part of the Ace Hotel’s Desert Gold festivities in Palm Springs, CA for Coachella. Check out the details on both locations below, which includes the already announced Elephant Reissue on colored vinyl:
