The streamer will be integrated into the in-store Rough Trade experience
France headquartered streaming and download platform Qobuz has announced a global partnership with independent music retailer Rough Trade.
The two-year partnership establishes Qobuz as the official streaming service of all Rough Trade stores worldwide through 2028.
Qobuz will be integrated directly into the in-store experience across all Rough Trade locations in the US, UK and Germany.
Qobuz and Rough Trade will collaborate on live in-store events, co-producing performances and programming hosted at Rough Trade locations.
Music from the Qobuz download store will be available through the Rough Trade retail website.
Rough Trade customers will receive special streaming deals, and Qobuz subscribers and employees will have access to discounts at Rough Trade stores.
Stephen Godfroy, co-owner of Rough Trade: “As we celebrate our 50th anniversary, there couldn’t be a more fitting partnership than expanding our artist-focused community into high-quality digital streaming with Qobuz – a likeminded independent platform that connects audiences and artists through deep curation, and champions emerging talent as passionately as established voices.”
