The Shop


We were digging cut-out bins, flea markets, and music stores for over 40 years before opening Elk City Records in 2017. In 2023, we acquired our own, larger space at 601 Maryland Avenue and are working hard to reopen and get back to business.

Tired of shopping?  Then relax by the vintage amplifier and turntables on which we play records, all day long.

We believe that a good shop

  • Helps people learn and enjoy more music.
  • Curates its collection.
  • Lets guests hear the records.
  • Makes things fun, for both seasoned collectors and first timers.

We try to run a good record shop.
