Welcome to Music Farmers. We're an independent record store in Wollongong, Australia. We're vinyl record specialists who have been supplying music lovers across greater Sydney and Australia with LPs, CDs, DVDs, books, shirts and good times since 2004 when it was co-founded by Jeb Taylor and Simon Dalla Pozza. In 2011 Simon moved on from the business to work full time in graphic design (and still contributes to some of the shop's design), at that time Nick Irwin came on board as a partner in the shop. Nick and Jeb continue to run the outlet to this day alongside a team of music obsessed staff.
Everything on this site is brand-spankin' new and listed in Australian dollars. In-store there's heaps of second-hand vinyl LPs, as well as all our regular stock. And if we don't have it, drop us a line and we'll see what we can do to get it in. We'll post anywhere in world, but if you live in Sydney, Wollongong or anywhere in NSW, you should drop in and and check us out.
Over the years we’ve hosted instore shows and signing events for artists including G Flip, Hockey Dad, Dope Lemon, Dermot Kennedy, Skegss, Gretta Ray, Bad//Dreems, Dune Rats, The Buoys, Kim Churchill, Tumbleweed, Pacific Avenue, The Vanns, Press Club, The Terrys, Bonnie Prince Billy, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers, Shining Bird, Beddy Rays and many others.
