PEORIA (25News Now) – A new record store has opened at Northwoods Mall, combining vinyl sales with live music performances.
Q-Tones Music opened on the lower level of Northwoods Mall. The store offers new and vintage vinyl records, turntables, speakers, and other audio accessories.
The shop includes a listening station where customers can try albums before purchasing, and a Led Zeppelin-themed pinball machine.
Owner Quentin Scherr designed part of the store as a small concert venue for local artists to perform weekly.
“I’ve always been a fan of music and Peoria has always been known to be a very lively music scene, so I wanted to give a spot for generations to kind of come together and find their favorite music, and discover new local artists and give them a spot to perform,” Scherr said.
Scherr plans to host local performers every week with an open mic.
The next open mic is scheduled for Nov. 22. Scherr hopes Q-Tones will help bring more energy and foot traffic to the mall.
