About Us

LoveVinyl is an independent record store located in the heart of East London, just a short walk from Hoxton Overground station. Since opening its doors in 2014, LoveVinyl has become an essential stop for DJs, collectors and music lovers alike, offering an incredible array of music. The racks are stacked with something for everyone - from disco and boogie to jazz and hip-hop, and from rock and house to rare groove and reggae. 

With decades of experience digging for records and spinning wax on turntables in London and beyond, co-owners Zafar Chowdhry and Jake Holloway have musical knowledge that is almost unparalleled. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or just at the start of your vinyl journey, Zaf and Jake will offer you advice and wisdom to aid your digging experience. Chances are you will leave the shop with the tunes you wanted, or perhaps one you didn’t know you needed.

Zaf and Jake have built more than just a record store – by regularly hosting in-store events that showcase local and international talent, they’ve turned the store into a real cultural hub. Still going strong after more than a decade, LoveVinyl has become an important part of the bustling East London music scene.
