Never Records is an art exhibit posing as a record shop and recording studio, and recently took place in New Orleans. Run by Ted Riederer, of New York City, Never Records invites local bands to record one song for free. The song is then put onto vinyl. Two copies are made one for the band and another for the shop. All this is done without any money exchange. Riederer has taken this project to London, Liverpool, Derry Ireland, and now New Orleans.

This essay is a sneak peak on a much larger body of work on the project that is still to be released. For more images and info check out:
