Taylor Swift Named 2022’s Global Record Store Day Ambassador
Taylor Swift has been named the 2022 Global Record Store Day ambassador! Record Store Day US announced the news via their Instagram earlier today, January 20.
Swift spoke about the honor is a statement released saying, “I’m very proud to be this year’s Global Ambassador for Record Store Day. The places where we go to browse and explore and discover music new and old have always been sacred to me. Record stores are so important because they help to perpetuate and foster music-loving as a passion. They create settings for live events.
They employ people who adore music thoroughly and purely. Those people and shops have had a rough few years and we need to support these small businesses more now than ever to make sure they can stay alive, stay eccentric, and stay individual. It’s been a true joy for me to watch vinyl sales grow in the past few years and we, the artists, have the fans to thank for this pleasant surprise. Happy Record Store Day, everyone! Stay safe out there.”
RSD will take place on April 23!
