If you spent Black Friday flipping through vinyls at your local indie record store, chances are you went home with albums by Noah Kahan and Billie Eilish.
Noah had the top-selling Record Store Day Black Friday 2024 release, according to Billboard. His Town Hall (Stick Season Collaborations) on tiger eye brown vinyl collected all eight duets from his album Stick Season (We’ll All Be Here Forever). They included collabs with Hozier, Gracie Abrams, Post Malone and Kacey Musgraves.
Billie had the #2 release: A version of HIT ME HARD AND SOFT with just the vocals isolated. Olivia Rodrigo‘s GUTS (Spilled) — the deluxe version of her album GUTS — was the #3 seller, pressed on red and purple vinyl.
Other popular vinyl releases this year were the soundtrack from The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie; U2‘s reimagining of their 2004 album, How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb, called How to Re-Assemble an Atomic Bomb; and albums from Kacey Musgraves, Teddy Swims and classic rock acts like the Grateful Dead and The Doors.
