Apple Valley Vinyl Record Expo

07/13/2025

Parents!!! Do you have a child/young adult who is an aspiring musician? Part of what we do is promote/produce all ages shows, with the goal of inspiring younger kids to pick up instruments and start their own bands.

Every show we do at the IOOF hall has at least one younger band playing. Often times parents have reached out to ask if I know of any other kids looking to form bands.

Last year we were able to put the parents of some younger kids in contact with each other, the kids formed a band and played a show at the IOOF last winter!

So, if one of your kids is looking for other younger musicians to start a band with, please message me via Facebook or Instagram. Typically looking for singers, guitar players, bass players, drummers and keyboard players. Please have parents reach out, not your kids. Thanks so much! We’ll be announcing the first couple of shows I have been working on for this fall/winter soon!rs

Hi everyone

A quick reminder that Matt Riggle (from Philadelphia) will be playing three solo/acoustic shows on Saturday June 14th in Wenatchee/Cashmere. I am beyond excited to help book these shows/watch him play. He is also well known as the director/writer/producer of the documentary “Filmage” about the band The Descendents.

Link to some of his music in the comments, as well as the documentary trailer.

Ron Evans did a great interview with him in the June issue of The Comet Magazine. Grab a copy in NCW or zoom in on the pics to read.

The Decker family has suffered an unimaginable loss. I, along with the rest of the Wenatchee Valley are completely devastated at the loss of the Decker girls. If you can, please donate or help share the gofundme. Whitney and her family need this support at this heartbreaking time, and for the forseable future.

Be good to each other and give your loved ones a tighter hug tonight.

This go fund me is to support Whitney Decker with expenses and legal costs while searching for her … Amy Edwards needs your support for Support Whitney Decker

Wow! Thanks to everybody who made the 2025 a truly special day! The vendors this year brought what I feel like was the best selection of records yet. Wenatchee has a giant two floor record store for one day. How cool is that?!?!

The turnout was awesome. I am soo appreciative that you all continue to show up in droves year after year. So many great conversations (my favorite part).

And this would not be possible without help from many people. First and foremost thanks to my wife, without her support/help, this would not be possible. Big thanks also to my old friend from Bellingham who not only helped out with pre show setup the day before, but helped out during and after the show. And single-handedly moved every table back after the show. Many thanks as always to Cynthia for working the door for the early entry. It was a team effort. Seriously, thanks everybody for all your help. This was a fun one. Already excited for the next one (in 2026).

And of course. Thanks to our awesome sponsors. Roadtrip Records, The Comet Magazine, The Time Capsule and Cashmere Records!
