Record Stores in Texas

Texas is one of the best states in the country for vinyl hunting, with a music culture rich enough to support stores of every size and specialty. Austin's live music identity draws collectors and musicians alike; Dallas and Houston add major-market depth; San Antonio and Fort Worth bring their own regional character. Texas stores stock blues, country, tejano, rock, and hip-hop with equal conviction. The state's size means road-tripping between shops is part of the culture — and almost always rewarding.
