Hello Summer!

Just because Memorial Day is behind us, don't think that Memorial Day sales are over for a second. There are still great deals to be had on existing merchandise. Folks are scrambling to get good deals before prices on so many items increase, and What's In-Store Music clients of all kinds are there to greet them. The right music can affect how people behave in restaurants and retail outlets. Slower, more relaxing music during the day can be heard in grocery stores and restaurants, creating a calm environment, allowing them to feel less rushed and more likely to stay longer. Clothing stores with more up-tempo music provide a sense of fun and playfulness. Not only does it keep the consumer in the store, but it is also more likely that they try things on and spend more. With this increase in consumer traffic and the desire for a good deal, now is the perfect time to submit your song to What's In-Store Music! If you're ready, you can do so right HERE.

What's In-Store Music has added a new Spotify playlist called What's In-Store Too. It features the fantastic artists and songs placed in the What's In-Store Too Program. Please enjoy responsibly.

"Pretty Faces"

“Pretty Faces” feels like a nostalgic look back at reckless nights, young love, and the moments that seemed unforgettable while they were happening. The song paints a picture of chasing dreams, getting lost in memories, and holding onto relationships that burned bright but couldn’t last. With references to dashboard promises, late-night highs, and “all the pretty faces,” Paper Money captures that mix of freedom and heartbreak that comes with growing up and moving on. At its core, the song is about remembering the people and moments that shaped you — even when all that’s left is goodbye.

Out & About with Moscow Mule

on May 30, 2026 at Bar 10 in Tarzana, CA

What a fun night of music!

This week's Out & About takes us to Bar 10 in Tarzana, where Moscow Mule-a band featuring former members of Sweet, The Cult, John Mellencamp's band, and The Allman Brothers Band-delivered two high-energy sets of classic rock covers to a packed and enthusiastic crowd.

The occasion? Stuart Smith's (Sweet) birthday celebration.

The band tore through favorites from Deep Purple, Rainbow, Bad Company, Cream, and, of course, Sweet, keeping the audience on its feet and singing along all night long.

Everyone had a blast, and our ears are still ringing!

Have a great week,

Scott Emerson
