Since 1976, Down Home Music Store has been a local mecca for obscure and hard-to-find music. The store extends way past just the Arhoolie label. It carries Gospel, Hawaiian, Afro-Cuban, African American, Middle East, Rock, Bluegrass, Blues, Folk and many more genres. The clerks here are valuable helpers in your quest to find new and hidden resources of music to add to your collection. You'll also find mainstream music here, from rock to folk.

Down Home Music is also a great place to drop by to find out what's happening in the local scene, from the El Cerrito Free Folk Festival to classes at local farmers markets. Local fliers and posters are  available at the record store clerk's desk.
