A VERY ECLECTIC VINYL RECORD STORE EXPERIENCE

TOM LOUNGES' RECORD BIN is a unique record shop located in Northwest Indiana. Located in Hobart, IN -- we carry new and pre-loved vinyl, Audio-Technica turntables, crystals, t-shirts, CD's, Cassettes, coffee mugs, and other pop culture items, Black Squirrel Crossing Guitar pick Jewelry, and collectibles.  

The store was founded in 2018 in Hobart, Indiana by Tom Lounges, who brings to the business over 40 years experience in various aspects of the music business -- as a radio and television broadcaster, print journalist, artist agent and manager, record label annotator, publicist, and event producer.  

He also brings many years of knowledge in running vinyl record stores, having spent years working in such popular Midwest record retail chains as Hegewsich Records and Woodmar Records, along with his debut in the vinyl retail world managing the fledgling single store location of Highland Records in 1977.

We also have 2 booths at the America's Antique Mall in Highland, IN. Booths B28,& B30.  We modeled it after our store - very organized and everything is labeled and easy to find.  Located  at 8311 Indianapolis Blvd, Highland, IN 46322

America’s Antique Mall in Highland is open 7 days a week. 10 AM - 7PM.

Tom Lounges Record Bin has been the site of the taping/making of live music videos by various artists, a national documentary taping done by the Hard Rock Cafe & Casino organization, and it has been the topic of feature articles in both local and national publications.

The store's slogan is "Where the cool kids go!" because one never knows what celebrity might pop in on any given day. See this site's "Gallery" page for some of those celeb images! You can be a "cool kid" too... just shop at The Bin where we are always happy to help and to talk about music with our patrons.
