Bush referred to the program, which supports independent record stores and vinyl lovers throughout the UK, as a “great privilege”.
“Isn’t it great to see how the resurgence in vinyl has taken the music industry by surprise?” she responded.
It had made the decision to abandon vinyl long ago, but apparently not everyone feels the same way! I adore that.
She went on to say: “I know there are many, many artists who are just as excited to see the audience turning the tide.”
Hundreds of limited edition, one-off albums and singles by artists including David Bowie, The 1975, Olivia Rodrigo, and others will be released on Record Store Day this year.
In his capacity as an ambassador, Bush will support the promotion of the occasion, which frequently results in lengthy lines of record collectors as well as in-store concerts and other unique events.
In addition, the celebrity will show her support by putting out a limited edition 10-inch vinyl of Eat The Music, a song from her 1993 album Red Shoes.
It was originally supposed to be the album’s lead single, but Rubberband Girl, which is more radio-friendly, won out. Rather than on the record sleeve itself, the original artwork for the Record Store Day edition is printed directly onto the disc.
