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.

Saves land in your shortlist; been-heres fill your Passport. Both shape the Best of MPLS. Anonymous, never sold.
