Lyn-Lake, Minneapolis
New and used, storied address
Lucky Cat Records
Opened in 2024 by first-time owner Michele Swanson in the most storied record-store address in the city: the corner of Lyndale and 26th that housed Oar Folkjokeopus and then Treehouse Records, the shops at the center of the Replacements-era scene. New blood in a room with forty years of ghosts, named for the maneki-neko cats by the register.
Thanks — that shapes the read.
