For Great Hats and Better Blues

Blue-Byrd’s

Haberdashery And Music


BLUE-BYRD’S is a must-see location on 320 Wall Street in Kingston, NY, and is an experience that owns its tagline, “For great hats and better blues.” Upon entering the shop, the music lover will have food for the soul when the sounds of the 12 Bar Blues transport the customer to a showcase featuring rare vinyl records and CDs. At the same time, touring the shop, the customer will find collectible gift items: T-Shirts, Books, Posters, Lithographs, Shiny Harmonicas, the world’s best hold-up suspenders, Fairtrade items from African Tribes, and Vintage Audio Equipment. 

And we are a proud sponsor of Radio Kingstonโ€™s Community Fund!

Blueโ€™s People explores the history of the โ€œBluesโ€ from its African roots to its modern-day art form. Host John Blueโ€™s knowledge of local, national, and international Blues artists offers up a special occasion to appreciate the genre. In contrast, his signature storytelling style offers listeners an exciting view of the music and the artist that created it. After all, โ€œevery song tells a story.”
