Discogs, the world's record store, today announced a new Livestream content series launching on Monday, April 13, at 2 pm EST on Facebook Live.

"We hope this first week will turn in to weeks and weeks of exceptional performances that support and connect the Discogs Community around the world."

Viewers who watch via Facebook Live will be encouraged to donate to the MusiCares® COVID-19 Relief Fund run by The Recording Academy®.
