Fellow music fans:

After about a decade of life on Philadelphia’s South Street, Spaceboy Music has decided to retire and close its doors in late-September. We will miss the excitement when bands like Notwist, Godspeed You Black Emperer, Sigur Ros, Belle and Sebastian, Espers, RJD2, Sunn))), Jack Rose and Radiohead were new and we could bring them to you. We were always excited to share what we liked with you and were even more excited when you showed us something new.

The world is different. The music industry has changed, technology has changed, South Street has changed. For Spaceboy Music, it’s time for a change.

Prior to the doors closing, we will be selling the contents of the store with a huge sale starting Saturday 8/26. Everything is for sale. - except Max - although all offers will be considered.

Philadelphia has an amazing collection of independent record stores and we will miss being a part of that community and we will miss you. Please stop by and say goodbye.

As always, thanks for choosing an independent retailer

Spaceboy Music
704 South Street
Philadelphia, PA

Strangely enough, Spaceboy sat atop Rockpile headquarters, which is now also sadly gone.
