With just under a week to go until the release of Club Smith‘s debut single ‘No Friend of Mine/Young Defeatists‘, here is a list of all the cool record shops you’ll be able to buy the 7″ from. Independent Record Shops are truly fantastic places that deserve all (and more) the trade they receive. So while we’d love it if you decided to buy the Club Smith record, I can highly recommend these shops are cool places to discover new and old music alike!
