On Saturday, April 12, 2025, Rough Trade NYC celebrated Record Store Day with another edition of their iNDIEPLAZA event featuring live performances by various acts in Rockefeller Plaza. The day long event featured DJ sets by Confines + Ohaileigh, Yuno, and Chanel Beads and live sets by Slippers, Lifeguard, Zsela, Pachyman, Clipping, Scowl, and The Hives. The event was scheduled during Record Store Day, and Rough Trade debuted their new space, Rough Trade Below, a few days prior.

Crowds convened on the plaza throughout the day despite the rain from when Slippers began at noon until The Hives closed the show around 9PM. I covered the day long event for Impose Magazine and the full gallery can be found on their website here.
