Season 2 of AXS TV’s original series “Vinyl Obsession” premieres on Sunday, Oct. 6, and just like last season, Nashville record store Grimey’s is getting some screen time.

With new host Eric Young at the show’s helm, each episode features two special guests — everyone from musicians to actors to comedians — in search of vinyl records that have “inspired and influenced them the most.” Young, a pro-wrestler with 2,000+ vinyl records in his collection, will dig through the stacks at Grimey’s alongside these guests:
  • Sunday, Oct. 6 | Dave Mustaine and Bobby Bones
  • Sunday, Oct. 20 | Melissa Joan Hart and Charles Esten
  • Sunday, Nov. 17 | Dusty Slay and Marcus King
The other five episodes were filmed at The Record Parlour in Los Angeles — see the full schedule. Bonus: Look back at Season 1 clips, also partially filmed at Grimey’s, featuring interviews with John Oates, Billy Gibbons, and Joe Bonamassa.
