Local hero and club owner Cindy Barber, of The Beachland Ballroom, is spreading the love through her Cleveland Rocks nonprofit organization. Already known for making great things happen in the Waterloo Arts district, Cindy and her team will be bringing new energy to the street as they open the Cleveland Rocks: Shop in the MUSIC SAVES space. They’ll work with Melanie Hershberger to capture the spirit of what Melanie created when she first opened MUSIC SAVES, the iconic indie record store that brought so much to Waterloo in its 15-year run. Now Melanie will share space in her building to help bring some of that energy back, with Cleveland Rocks: Shop occupying the original storefront. But Cleveland Rocks: Shop will be much more than a reactivated storefront: it will be a space where local musicians find their audiences, sell their music, share new work, and get support. Look for a renovated space where visitors can find new releases, listening stations, merchandising, and in-store concerts and events, all showcasing the great creative talent in our local music scene. You can help us kick it off with a gift of any size this Giving Tuesday. And we’ll see you at the Cleveland Rocks: Shop in spring 2020!
