mail@downhomemusic.com Down Home Music Store has been serving the San Francisco bay area
for over 32 years with an extensive selection of roots music from the U.S. and around the globe.
We began as an spin-off of the Arhoolie Records label in 1976 as owner Chris Strachwitz saw the need to serve the community directly with a storefront.
Popular
demand for world music, and it's growing availability has fueled Down Home's expansion to over 24,000 selections. Our knowledgeable and specialized staff
are here to help you locate a broad range of hard to find new and re-issued traditional and
experimental roots music. WE BUY YOUR USED CD's, LP's, 45's, 78's,
& MUSIC RELATED EPHEMERA! CASH OR TRADE! 2008 has been a pretty rough
year for the retail music business and for Down Home Music. We unfortunately had
to close our experiment at 1809 4th street in Berkeley due to escalating costs
and declining sales. Our apologies to all our faithful fans and great customers.
However, we're still hanging in here in El Cerrito and plan to be around as long
as we can. We installed additional listening stations throughout the store and
expanded our new and used LP vinyl room. We're currently working on a functional
internet database so our far flung fans can still order good music and we've set
up shop on EBAY for certain high end collectibles. SHOWS
Fax(510) 525 4827 Open 7 days a week: 11-6pm Wed. & Sat. 11-7pm
We carry a wide assortment of NEW and USED CDs, DVDs, LPs, books, magazines, vintage 78s/45s.

Whenever possible, we try and bring local live music and hot out of town acts to perform free daytime promotional gigs live in store. We advertise these events on flyers and community calendars. But the most reliable way to stay informed is to get yourself on our email list. Write us at mail@downhomemusic.com and we'll sign you up. Also don't forget to check this space for updates.
