Jumbo Records is the beating heart of independent music shops in Leeds. Since then it has gone through several transformations, in recent years it changed management after a forty year long ride with previous owners Hunter and Lornette Smith. Now, Jumbo is a melting pot of genre that prioritises quality, regardless of style or personal taste. As a beacon of culture in the north, Jumbo aims to cover as many different tastes and interests as possible. They are constantly bringing in new releases and re-issues across a vast span of genres and their back catalogue is a deep and bountiful treasure trove of good taste.

With a city that boasts a vast mix of artists, the shop is always warm, welcoming and supportive towards local acts. Most of the team are musicians themselves or have a finely tuned appreciation for fresh sounds.
