2. THE GEORGIA E.P. -
DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE
What makes this an EP:
This EP was released for only one day via Bandcamp in order
to raise money for the Georgia based voter rights
organization Fair Fight Action in 2020. To celebrate the
Georgia runoff election results, the band decided to release
this again (Death Cab For Cutie).

3. FINE LINE LP - HARRY
STYLES
What makes this a LP:
The twelve-track album is the second album released by
Harry Styles in 2019 by Columbia and Erksine Records.
(Spoonful Records).

4. RESEARCH
QUESTIONS
• Do they offer indie artists
consignment? Yes!
• Do they have marketing reps
visit their store? Not often..

5. EVENTS
• The most recent event
Spoonful Records had was
Record Store Day where
they helped hundreds of
people and had a line of
194 people by 8 AM.

6. EXCLUSIVES
• An album that was
released exclusively for
Record Store Day was
Taylor Swift’s Long
Pond Sessions album.
They sold through all
240 copies that day.

7. SWAG
• Spoonful Records does
not offer any free swag at
their checkout, however
there is swag that can be
purchased.

8. PROMOS
• One of the current
promotions Spoonful
Records has been copies
of Smashing Pumpkins –
Mellon Collie Vinyl Boxset
for $115 with only 6 left
as of 7/1/23.

9. REFLECTION
• I would use this record
store for a local indie
artist’s album release. They
have over 7K followers on
Instagram, as well as a
great online presence. With
that being said, I would do
an in-store event with the
artist for their fans and to
invite people in to meet the
artist and purchase the
album to have it signed
during a free meet and
greet.
