Asheville and all of Western North Carolina has suffered (and continues to weather) devastating effects from Hurricane Helene. The good news is that Citizen Vinyl and our staff are safe.
While we’re not currently open to the public, our record pressing facility has been able to continue on schedule — more on that below. Our public events are cancelled for the time being, as we are without water. We will continue to share updates through our socials as we know more.
