Our Story

Music Has Always Been in Our DNA

Vinyl Coffee UK was born from a lifelong love of music. Our founder grew up immersed in sound — DJing at 18, taking singing lessons at 20, briefly joining a band, auditioning for record labels, and recording demos in studios. Music wasn't just a hobby; it was a way of life.

From Records to Record Fairs

It all started with selling used vinyl records on eBay. That grew into organising record fairs across the UK — bringing together music lovers, collectors, and curious newcomers to celebrate the warmth and authenticity of vinyl.

The Shop That Almost Was

The dream took a bold step forward with the opening of the Vinyl Coffee record and coffee shop — a place where great music and great coffee could coexist. Sadly, the location wasn't right and the shop had to close. But the passion never did.

A New Chapter

Today, Vinyl Coffee UK has a new home - premium, music-inspired graphic T-shirts made from organic cotton and individually hand-pressed to order.

The designs take their cues from British music culture - the records, gigs, venues and moments that stay with you. Clean, understated graphics in black and white, made for people who want to wear their love of music without looking like they've bought a souvenir T-shirt.

The founder is still learning piano, still going to gigs and still as passionate about music as ever. Every T-shirt is another part of that journey - from DJ booth to the studio, the record fair to the coffee shop, and now your wardrobe. 

Welcome to Vinyl Coffee UK. The music never stops.
