Rough Trade have announced that they will open their new UK branch on arguably the most famous music street in the world – London’s Denmark Street, once known as ‘Tin-Pan Alley’.

This will be the very first time the iconic street has had a record shop. Rough Trade will join the many instrument shops and music venues on the street, making it even more of a must visit destination for music lovers.

Although the Denmark Street store will not offer a live performance space, it will host album signings and work in partnership with neighbouring venues HERE and The Lower Third to contribute to Rough Trade’s existing out-store events programme.

Lawrence Montgomery, Managing Director, Rough Trade UK said “We are thrilled to bring Rough Trade to London’s iconic Denmark Street, a location that holds such a profound place in the city's music history. Our new store will house an extensive selection of curated vinyl across all genres, as well as a specialist book selection and exclusive merchandise. With its rich heritage and ongoing legacy, Denmark Street is the perfect setting for our next chapter, fostering its own unique community, while also offering all the vibrancy and expertise customers have come to expect when visiting Rough Trade."

Rough Trade Denmark Street opens mid October. For more information, visit roughtrade.com.
