Independent but stronger together.

About Dinked

Dinked is a collaboration between some of the UK’s most proactive and industrious independent music retailers.

 

Dinked is run by Natasha Youngs (Resident, Brighton) & Rupert Morrison (formerly of Drift, Totnes), alongside their respective day jobs, purely for the love and the buzz.

We have sold over 250,000 records to date between us.

We are also very proud of our Early Doors series, supporting music at a grassroots level and bringing artists on the cusp to a much wider audience. We have already worked with Makeshift Art Bar, Dog Race, Hank, YARD, wing!, ladylike, PUNCHBAG, Ain’t, Pollyfromthedirt and Glasshouse Red Spider Mite.

Brand new artists. Established acts. Future stars. Legends. Any genre. Our tastes and reach are wide. It’s all about the music. And making sure people listen.

As we always said; “Independent but stronger together.”
