Josh Wanamaker Joins Tiffany Anton To Discuss The Inspiration Behind Opening Flat Foot Records

Loading player...
Tiffany Anton sits down with Josh Wanamaker, musician and co-owner of Flat Foot Records, McMinnville’s newly opened local record store located just steps from the historic Park Theatre on Main Street. Josh shares the inspiration behind opening the shop, his favorite places to hunt for vinyl, and what sets Flat Foot Records apart—from its unique mix of music memorabilia to the way different social groups naturally collide and connect inside the store. He talks about his mission to give McMinnville something it’s been missing: a true local music hub with listening stations, a hangout area, and plans for intimate acoustic performances. Josh and Tiffany also dive into the story behind the name “Flat Foot Records,” their upcoming tracks and collectibles, and the deeper, more complex world of collecting high-quality vinyl. It’s a conversation about community, creativity, and the impact a small music store can make on a downtown scene.
