Vinyl Cafe

Tune into The Vinyl Cafe to hear the misadventures of Dave, owner of the Vinyl Cafe – the world’s smallest record store where the motto is “We May Not Be Big, But We’re Small.” The show features Dave and his wife, Morley, their two children Sam and Stephanie and assorted friends and neighbours. The program is hosted by Stuart McLean, Canada’s answer to Garrison Keillor. In addition to stories The Vinyl Cafe also features music - both live and recorded. We travel across the country searching for new, undiscovered musicians and visiting with old friends. Host Stuart McLean is a best-selling author, award-winning journalist and humorist, in addition to being the host of CBC Radio's The Vinyl Cafe. Since 1998 Stuart has taken the show on the road, performing in large and small towns across Canada from St. John’s, Newfoundland to Whitehorse in the Yukon. The Vinyl Cafe is one of CBC Radio's most popular radio programs. More than 750, 000 North Americans listen to The Vinyl Cafe every weekend. The show is currently heard across Canada on CBC Radio 1 & 2, on BBC 7 in the UK and on KUOW in Seattle. The first volume of stories from the Vinyl Cafe, Home from the Vinyl Cafe, is published by Simon & Schuster in the USA.
