Treehouse Records

Treehouse Records is the current incarnation of a series of storied record stores at the corner of 26th and Lyndale in south Minneapolis. After becoming Oar Folkjokeopus in 1972 it quickly emerged as the epicenter for the burgeoning 70s and 80s Twin Cities punk scene. Renamed Treehouse in 2001 after the Oar Folk manager took over the business, the store remains a staple of the Twin Cities underground/independent music community and the best source for vinyl in the state.

Gospel Gossip in-store/record release!

Gospel Gossip, fronted by our very own part-time employee Sarah ("Ruckus"), has a brand new EP out on Guilt Ridden Pop. Dreamland is available as a CD, or as a gorgeous white vinyl record with a silkscreened cover. The vinyl includes a CD version as well.

To celebrate this release, they will be giving a free in-store performance at Treehouse on Saturday, June 27 at 5 PM! (There is also an official release show on Friday night at the Turf Club.)

Free Michael Yonkers CD-Rs!

In conjunction with today's City Pages feature on experimental and noise music, the legendary Michael Yonkers has given us a handful of sampler CD-Rs to give away to the first half-dozen or so people to ask for them. They will not be here long, so get on it!
