Pommelien Thijs will release an exclusive single to celebrate Record Store Day 2025, a collaboration with the Dutch band DI-RECT.
The first customers at one of the 170 participating record stores will be able to purchase the 7-inch vinyl single and it will include a second song, yet to be revealed. DI-RECT and Pommelien Thijs are no strangers to each other as they shared the stage at Vrienden Van Amstel Live in The Netherlands. Both artists will pay surprise visits to some of the stores on that day.
"When I was asked to become the ambassador for Record Store Day in Belgium, I immediately said yes. I love records. My own collection is still modest and in its infancy. The albums that are truly dear to me, I do have physically at home. I enjoy regularly visiting record stores. When I see the enormous selection, I realize again how many people are involved in music. That's why I find it such an inspiring environment. The stores are important, and it's good to give them extra attention on Record Store Day.", she said.
Record Store Day is a day where everything revolves around viny records in the music stores. Vinyl has been on the rise again in recent years and is also popular with youth.
