Music

They already love music more than you do. They’ve got playlists for emotions you forgot you feel. Albums they swear they’ve fallen in love with, special editions of records you know they bought for the cover art. They talk about that one song like it owes them money. Shopping for them is intimidating because it feels like walking into the middle of an argument you weren’t aware had been happening for years. We get it. That’s why we curated this collection with incredible care. We didn’t just go with some boring, music related gift. Something forgettable like a mug with a treble clef printed on it or a framed picture of The Beatles crossing Abbey Road. We thought about what music obsessives would actually want to own, or use, or hang on their walls. It’s the difference between acknowledging a hobby and understanding why it’s an obsession. So we only picked things we loved. We constantly asked ourselves, “Would this work for someone who’s really fucking passionate about music?” Someone who could easily recognise a thoughtless gift and silently judge you with their eyes. If an item couldn’t pass that test, we kicked it out. What you’re left with are gifts that go far deeper than “Oh, they’re into music. Cool, I know!” Some are objectively useful, like records, stands, speakers and other goodies that improve the way they listen to music. Stuff that feels like it was made for their lifestyle because music isn’t on the periphery; it’s how they spend their day. Others are purposefully sentimental because we get it. Music isn’t the background hum in their lives, it’s a full blown interior monologue that deserves respect. We don’t pretend to encompass every music fan under the sun with hundreds of gift ideas. Shortlist because a good gift list should always be. These are all things we would give as gifts to friends and family. Moments when it really counts. We even own some of them ourselves. One of us bought something from this list to give to someone else before we’d finished editing. Now that’s a sign you’re on the right path.

Drums

Buying for a drummer is the easiest thing in the world or the most confusing decision you'll ever make. Usually depending on whether or not you actually know what they want. If they've told you they want that snare you know they've been buzzing about for months, or that stash of cymbals they've been casually checking every week at the shop then buy away. But let's be real here, majority of people purchasing for drummers are one degree removed from that magical knowledge so that's exactly who we had in mind when we built this. Paragraph? Yeah we grabbed a…

Guitar

Buying gifts for guitarists seems simple until you find yourself in a music store clueless if they already have it or not, if they even play the right gauge for that gear to make sense and whether you’re just giving someone an inherently offensive gift. They always have strong opinions about their gear. We know how it is because we are those people too. Between us, we’ve played for decades. We’ve had the wrong thing given to us more than once. We’ve built up an understanding of what makes a great gift versus what gets tossed aside with the easter…

Piano

Somewhere out there is someone who sat down at a piano once and lost track of time for an hour. They may have been grade eight. They may only know three chords they learned at age fourteen. Either way. Does not matter. They have real relationship with that piano. One that is specific and profound and says something true about them as a person. Which means you can buy for them. Really buy for them. If you pay attention. We built this collection with people like that in mind. Musicians playing piano are not niche! There are millions of them…

Violin

Buying a gift for someone who plays violin isn't the same as buying a gift for someone who happens to play music. Musicians love music, sure, but violinists know what they love. They've spent hours with their chosen instrument, an object that requires great physical and emotional investment, daily. They can spot a token gift miles away. We've been there too. We've seen people open tiny wrench keyring, forced grin brittle as celery. We're not going to make that mistake with your giftees. Instead, we went looking for products that fit the life of a violin player. No gag gifts…
